Quick Summary

If you provide metal scrap recycling services, where the scrap belongs to the client and you charge a fee for the recycling process, the correct Service Accounting Code (SAC) to use is 998941. This code specifically covers metal waste and scrap recovery services on a fee or contract basis. Avoid the more general code 9988, which is for broader manufacturing services and not specific to recycling.

31 October 2025 9988 is a broader code for generic manufacturing services on physical inputs (goods) owned by others, and covers various industries, not specifically recycling.

998941 specifically covers "Metal waste and scrap recovery (recycling) services, on a fee or contract basis."

Since you provide a recycling service where the scrap remains the property of the original company and you are compensated for the recycling process, use SAC 998941 for invoicing and GST compliance.
