TaxTim says: 7 June 2016 at 21:46 No, he would not have to pay fringe benefit tax. This would only be payable on an employer provided vehicle, which is not applicable for a sole proprietor. |

TaxTim says: 9 June 2016 at 8:18 Bellow is an extract from the SARS Guide for employers in respect of Fringe Benefits Tax: "With effect from 01 March 2014 a taxable fringe benefit may arise where the employee acquires an asset from the employer at less than the market value." By definition, fringe benefits tax only applies to employee (and not someone working as a sole proprietor). |
