Your business

What best describes your business?

Pick the closest match. These are the categories FICA lists as "accountable institutions" in Schedule 1.

This tool gives general guidance based on Schedule 1 of the Financial Intelligence Centre Act 38 of 2001 and is not legal advice. Schedule 1 and the thresholds change: the definitive test is the wording of the Act and current FIC guidance. If in doubt, confirm your status with the FIC or with lawvero before deciding.
