Levy Payment Guide

As approved by NEC (13 September 2024), the minimum levy contribution:

  • Is payable at the beginning of each financial year, or
  • Upon approval of a new membership application

This adjustment ensures SARACCA can continue delivering industry support, compliance guidance, training assistance, and operational services to members Members information Letter Octo….

To ensure accurate levy contributions:

  • Member turnover will be confirmed quarterly
  • If turnover exceeds the minimum bracket, a top-up levy invoice will be issued
  • Once per year, members must complete an Update Form
  • An auditor’s letter must confirm annual turnover Members information Letter Octo…

This structure ensures fairness across both small-to-medium members and Anker members.

Membership categories are structured according to turnover levels:

  • Small-to-Medium Members
  • Anker Members

Contribution tiers increase proportionally with company turnover, as detailed in the official levy schedule Levy Payment Guide.

  • Levies are exclusive of VAT (unless stated otherwise in the schedule).
  • All levy payments must be settled in accordance with invoice terms.
  • Outstanding levies may affect access to certain member benefits.
  • Updated turnover information must be accurate and supported by auditor confirmation.
