Getting you across the border — and compliant.
If you've come across Maltech-Africa online, there's a good chance you've landed on more than one of our sites without realising they're all part of the same operation. That's by design — different parts of what we do live on different doors, so each visitor finds the door built for their specific need. Here's a map of the whole family, and what each one is actually for.
This is home base: the SADC SME compliance and trade site that ties everything together. Learn who we are, how our three business units (Macro-Business Intelligence, Business Retention & Expansion, and Trade, Invest & Regulatory Enablement) fit together, and read our guides and blog. It is also where you book a consultation for advisory services and buy our guides, eBooks, training and templates in the Shop. Looking for fixed-price South African registrations and compliance? Go to the SA-Biz Shop. It's also where you'll find our Diaspora Assist, Plan the Move, and Facilitation & Aftercare content, along with the Which Return Are You? diagnostic if you're not yet sure which situation describes you.
The door for starting and running a business in South Africa, with a path to expand into Zimbabwe. Register a company, file CIPC returns, arrange SARS, BBBEE, UIF and COIDA, and apply for work permits and visas, all at clear fixed prices you can buy online. This is also where the Promise to Pay Service lives: a flexible deposit-plus-instalment option for SMEs who have fallen behind on compliance and want to catch up without paying it all upfront.
The mirror image of the SA-Biz Portal, built for Zimbabwe. If your business — or your plan for one — is on the Zimbabwe side of the border, this is where the setup, compliance, and facilitation services for that market are handled. Start in Zimbabwe, with a path to continue into South Africa.
Sitting above everything is the Maltech Group site, the holding-company overview of the whole organisation. If you want the bird's-eye view of how Maltech-Africa fits within the wider group, start here.
The Maltech Africa Group site lists the subsidiaries that operate under the Maltech-Africa name. Visit it if you are looking for a specific business within the family.
Trust is the real barrier to doing business across African borders — more than distance, more than opportunity. The Veritas Bureau exists to solve exactly that: business verification and SME grading, so that partners, investors, and regulators have a credible, independent way to know who they're actually dealing with.

Because "one website that tries to be everything to everyone" tends to serve no one particularly well. A Zimbabwean SME chasing SA compliance doesn't need to wade through Group-level subsidiary information to find it, and an investor doing due diligence doesn't need to dig through service pricing to find a verification tool. Splitting the network by purpose means whichever door you land on, you're already close to what you actually came for.
That's fine — most people aren't, at first. Start at the hub, maltechafrica.co.za, and the right door will be obvious within a click or two. Or just get in touch directly and we'll point you to the right one.
Maltech-Africa: business facilitation and aftercare for Africa — we don't just tell you what to do, we do it with you.
