What is Payroll Outsourcing? | Accounting Services SA

Payroll outsourcing is the process where a specialised external company manages the majority of your payroll compliance obligations, ensuring adherence to employee regulations, the Department of Labour, and the South African Revenue Service (SARS). By outsourcing your payroll, you reduce administrative burden, mitigate compliance risks, and ensure accurate and timely employee payments.

Our clients benefit from a comprehensive range of payroll outsourcing services, including:

Registration with the Department of Labour for UIF-related services
SARS registration for PAYE, UIF, and SDL
Workmen's Compensation (WCA) registration
Processing of weekly, fortnightly, and monthly payroll cycles
Detailed summaries of net employee payments for each payroll period
Professional payslips generated using VIP Payroll software
Direct employee payments, if required by the client
Timely monthly submission of the EMP201 return to SARS
IRP5 reconciliations twice a year (August and February)
Accurate calculation, submission, and payment of PAYE, UIF, and SDL
Pre-warning alerts for company filing deadlines
End-of-year returns to COIDA (Return of Earnings)
Submissions to the Department of Labour, including Garnishee Orders and A88 forms
Assistance with applications for Letters of Good Standing
Outsourcing your payroll to our team ensures compliance, accuracy, and efficiency, while giving you more time to focus on your core business operations.
