Fred says: 25 November 2015 at 23:54 I am British, have my family and home in South Africa, work abroad for long periods of time and don't work in SA. Sometimes I take a long holiday at home - three or four months. I sign a contract for each company I work for abroad. Am I liable for SA income tax? |
TaxTim says: 26 November 2015 at 7:32 How long are you away for each time? How long have you been in SA? |
Fred says: 27 November 2015 at 11:12 These are the number of days I was in South Africa, including travel days (flying out or landing): 2015: 154 4 2 = 160 days 2014: 10 7 15 3 = 35 days 2013: 23 146 14 = 183 days I received my Permanent Residence permit on 9 December 2013. I have paid full income tax in UK up to beginning of April 2014. |
TaxTim says: 27 November 2015 at 15:31 No you will not be liable for SA income tax for any of the income earned whilst you are outside SA. |
