Find a trustworthy partner for your FICA journey

We recently looked at a number of aspects regarding the changes in the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) Act that will affect Motor Vehicle Dealers (MVDs) in certain instances.

23 Doc Fox Ok4a

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.
