Dirk says: 23 March 2016 at 16:37 I was employed by a UAE company from March 2008 to Sept 2015. I did not emigrate to UAE and always had the intention of tax returning to SA. I was never more than 30 days in total in SA when visiting family before I left for UAE again to continue employment. Will my employment income earned for this period be taxable in SA? Where do I include this on my tax returns when completing them for SARS? |
TaxTim says: 24 March 2016 at 14:06 Based on what you have described, it sounds like this foreign income would be exempt in South Africa. Please work through the questions: Can I claim a portion of my foreign income as exempt? and follow the instructions on the bottom of the page which explains where to declare on your tax return. |
