All aspects of this are distressing. Business licensing is intrusive and anti-business. Preferential licensing is unconstitutional, and SARS already has a large department dealing with counterfeit goods, so this is redundant.

Principles of business licensing
CIPC and SARS already have information on 99% of business activities. Professions like Real estate agents, accountants, medical practitioners, Electricians and others already have registration authorities. SAPS, Traffic Police, SARS inspectors, SABS and other organizations already exist to enforce governance. This is a duplication in resources. More likely an attempt to regulate who may partcicpate in the economy. One can assume that BBEEE quotas will be part of the criteria on allocating licenses. Thus a qualified white electrician might not be allocated a business license based on a BBEE rule. Free trade could be hampered as a current licensee cannot sell his business if the buyer cannot obtain a license. The consequences are much the same as the issue with land reform without a fair value. How will business obtain bank finance if the licenses are contentious. Refer to the issues on mineral right to see examples of the state causing the mining industry to stagnate. No exploration for past 20 years. delays in the approval of mineral right applications. No, this law has to many unforeseen consequences considering other examples the past 30 years.
