I live in Namibia, but work for a South African company.
I'm a South African citizen. Under the new changes brought in with the budget, how will my tax work? I'm still working for the same company (I have been working for 7 years in total).

Your South African employer should be taxing you locally, if you were out of the country for more than 60 days consecutively and 183 days in a year, you should be able to claim back a portion of the tax you paid on your income.
