Also subtract any contributions to a pension fund or retirement annuity fund, donations, depreciation and other travel allowance deduction and any exempt income. Does this mean petrol, stationery, ink rent etc.? |

Your car and petrol, you would need to keep some records like a logbook to prove to SARS the apportionment of your travelling expenses. |
