VAT on plumbing invoices
If your annual turnover exceeds R1 million, you must register for VAT and issue tax invoices under Section 20 of the VAT Act 89 of 1991. Your invoice must show amounts excluding VAT, the VAT at 15%, and the total including VAT. Even if you are not VAT registered, keeping professional invoices helps with tax returns and SARS record-keeping requirements.
