Gain significant advantages when bidding for tourism-related government contracts, tenders, and concessions. Essential for accessing lucrative opportunities with government entities for events, accommodation, and travel services in South Africa's growing tourism sector.

Compliance with the tourism-specific BBBEE Sector Code demonstrates commitment to transformation within South Africa's tourism landscape and opens doors to industry-specific opportunities, partnerships, and networks that might otherwise remain inaccessible.
Enhance your tourism business reputation among both domestic and international tourists who increasingly value ethical business practices and social responsibility. Many international tour operators prioritize partnerships with BBBEE-compliant businesses.
Unlock various tourism-specific incentives, grants, and support programs designed for BBBEE-compliant tourism businesses, including preferential financing options and marketing support through South African Tourism and other government agencies.
Play a meaningful role in South Africa's economic transformation through tourism, which has been identified as a key driver for job creation and economic growth, with particular potential to empower previously disadvantaged communities.

The Tourism Sector Code is a specialized framework within the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) legislation that addresses the unique characteristics and challenges of the tourism industry in South Africa. It was developed to promote transformation and economic participation in the tourism sector.
The Tourism Sector Code applies to all tourism businesses in South Africa, including hotels, B&Bs, guesthouses, tour operators, travel agencies, restaurants, conference venues, attractions, car rental companies, and other tourism-related services. The specific requirements vary based on your annual turnover and business size.
Under the Tourism Sector Code, businesses are classified as follows: Exempted Micro Enterprises (EMEs) with annual turnover below R5 million, Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSEs) with turnover between R5 million and R45 million, and Large Enterprises with turnover above R45 million. Each category has different compliance requirements.
BBBEE certificates for tourism businesses are valid for 12 months from the date of issue. It's important to start the renewal process at least 2-3 months before expiration to ensure continuous compliance.
The Tourism Sector Code identifies three priority elements: Ownership, Skills Development, and Enterprise and Supplier Development. Large tourism enterprises must comply with all three, while QSEs must comply with Ownership (compulsory) plus either Skills Development or Enterprise and Supplier Development.
Professional BBBEE consultants specialize in certification for the tourism industry. They provide end-to-end support including initial assessment, documentation preparation, verification facilitation, certificate issuance, and ongoing compliance support tailored specifically to tourism businesses in South Africa.
