Access to Info – Your Trusted Partner for PAIA Compliance in South Africa

Every South African company and organisation is required by law to have a PAIA Manual (Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000). If your business doesn't have one, you could face penalties and miss opportunities to build trust with clients.

At Access to Info, we make it simple and affordable to create your PAIA Manual – fully compliant with PAIA and POPIA requirements.

What is a PAIA Manual?

A PAIA Manual is a legal document that:

• Explains what records your organisation holds
• Provides the process for the public to request access to information
• Shows your compliance with both PAIA and POPIA regulations

Every private body and company in South Africa needs one – from small businesses to large corporations.

Why Do You Need a PAIA Manual?

• Legal Requirement – Compulsory under the Promotion of Access to Information Act
• POPIA Alignment – Helps demonstrate responsible handling of personal information
• Transparency & Trust – Builds credibility with clients and regulators
• Avoid Penalties – Non-compliance can lead to fines or reputational harm
• Stay Current – Laws change, and your manual needs to stay compliant

It's Not as Complex as Law Firms Want You to Think
