Do I pay tax on my SA salary if I am out of the country for most of the year?



I am going to work for a Tanzanian company for the next 12 months, but will still earn my SA salary. Is it business as usual in terms of PAYE on my SA salary, or is there some sort of relief?

There is a relief if you meet the definition which you can measure yourself against by following our guide on how t claim a portion of my foreign income as exempt?
