An Authority that's Actively Tightening, not Standing Still
SARS has been moving aggressively on digital customs compliance, expanding pre-declaration requirements, tightening documentation rules, and adjusting tariffs with real consequences for landed cost and audit risk. Small administrative gaps, an invoice detail, a worksheet inconsistency, are exactly the kind of thing SARS's more systematic, data-driven approach is designed to catch. A manual filing process built for a less scrutinized era doesn't hold up well against that.
