We covered themes ranging from Vehicle Dealers: From Reporting to Accountable Institutions; Seven key points to become fully FICA compliant; A hefty price to pay for non-compliance to Seven Reasons you should automate your FICA process.

At the end of last year, the Government Gazette published changes to Schedules 1, 2 and 3 of the FIC Act. Motor vehicle dealers were included in the High Value Goods Dealers (HVGDs) category as Accountable Institutions. These new Accountable Institutions were granted an 18-month transitional period by the FIC.

Now with only six months left in the 18-month transitional period, time is ticking away for new Accountable Institutions to become FICA compliant.
