QSE BBBEE AFFIDAVITS

Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSEs) can submit a sworn QSE Affidavit to certify their over 51% Black ownership structure and qualify for level 2 or level 1 BBBEE recognition.

Qualifying Small Enterprise Affidavits

Businesses with annual turnover of between R10 million and R50 million are defined as Qualifying Small Enterprises, and need to be verified according to a sector-specific BBBEE scorecard, except where black ownership exceeds 51%.

QSEs with 51% to 99% black ownership qualify for BBBEE Level 2, while 100% black-owned companies qualify for Level 1.

In these cases, you can submit a sworn QSE Affidavit to certify your ownership structure and qualify for higher procurement recognition.
