Think iXBRL. Think IRIS. CIPC's trusted partner for iXBRL implementation.
We know the mandate like no one else does
The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC), has mandated Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL) filings from 1st July 2018.
With this mandate, all qualifying entities that were earlier submitting their Annual Financial Statements (AFS) in PDF format, need to submit AFS in iXBRL format going forward.
IRIS is the implementer of iXBRL for the CIPC. The CIPC uses IRIS iFile to receive all the iXBRL filings in South Africa and also have integrated our validator to receive the highest quality of iXBRL filings from filing entities.
