FAQ
- What should I verify about the company at CIPC before buying it?Confirm registration status, directors, annual returns and the latest beneficial-ownership declaration. Compare CIPC records with the seller’s securities register and constitutional documents, and require unresolved filings or discrepancies to be corrected before completion.
- How can I test whether major customer contracts will continue after the sale?Read assignment, change-of-control, renewal, termination and exclusivity clauses in every material contract. Obtain required consents before completion and quantify revenue at risk where a customer may terminate, renegotiate or refuse transfer.
- Which checks reveal whether reported B2B revenue is collectible?Match invoices to signed orders, delivery evidence, VAT records, bank receipts and customer statements. Age receivables, examine credit notes and disputes, and separate recurring external sales from once-off, related-party or owner-dependent revenue.
- What happens to employees when a business transfers as a going concern?Section 197 of the Labour Relations Act can transfer employment automatically to the new employer. Review contracts, leave, benefits, disciplinary matters and collective agreements, then allocate historic liabilities clearly in the sale agreement.
- Which SARS records should I review before acquiring a B2B company?Check income tax, VAT, PAYE and customs registrations relevant to the business, together with submitted returns, assessments, reconciliations and disputes. Obtain current compliance evidence and identify exposures that remain in the company after a share purchase.
- Can the seller simply hand over its customer database?Not automatically. Identify the lawful POPIA basis for transferring and using personal information, review privacy notices and processor contracts, and assess access controls, retention, breaches and data-subject requests before migrating customer or employee records.
