Foreign earnings while out of SA?

By Marc Sevitz · Updated

How are foreign payments from the UN (earned while living out side of South Africa on a full time basis) taxed in SA? Where do I add them into my TaxTim form?

If you are outside of SA for longer than 183 days during a 12 month period and 60 of those days were continuous, due to employment, then this income is not taxable in SA. You would answer this in terms of section 10(1)(o) under the questions regarding income not being taxable on the TaxTim questionnaire.
