How Hiring an Accountant Works on FreelanceLocals

The accountants listed above are freelancers who set their own rates and take on work directly — bookkeeping, financial statements and management accounts, payroll, tax and VAT compliance, and auditing. If none of the current listings fit what you need, post a free brief instead: describe your business and what you need done, and accountants respond directly with their approach and price.

Pricing varies by scope: smaller once-off tasks tend to sit around R150–R600, while ongoing monthly bookkeeping or accounting packages are typically quoted as a monthly rate rather than a single project fee. Every freelancer prices independently, so posting a brief is the fastest way to get a quote matched to your business.

You review proposals, compare experience, and hire directly — no commission, no agency in between.
