Started at new company this year (Online company based in Norway) what tax do I pay?

By Marc Sevitz · Updated 27 February 2014

Up until December 2013 I worked at Incredible Connection. I earned a basic and commission. They always used the PAY-E (Pay as you earn) to pay my tax.

At my new Company, an online company based in Norway, I get paid a salary and commission together in 1 payment. I submit my commission table at the end of the month and I am paid around the 5th-7th of the following month.
My question is:
1) do I need to use an IRP6 now (Provisional) if my only income is via my salary and commission (although it is from a foreign country)? (I earn less than the 250000 per month) average which I think means I don't need an IRP6
2) can I just use the tax tables and put away each months tax in my savings account so that I can make 1 big payment when needed at the end of the tax year?

I would prefer to just use personal income tax ITR12 so that I do not have to do this 2-3 times a year as with
I have spoken to employees at SARS and I get different answers. I need to pay by tomorrow AAAAAAAAHH please help.

Do they deduct any money in Norway before paying you?

If not then yes you will need to register as a provisional taxpayer (technically the company has to register in SA) and go through the process of submitting 3 returns unfortunately.

Thanks so much for the help.. No, there aren't any deductions before they pay me.

Can I make use of the tax tables to judge more or less what il need to pay?

Yes, use the tax tables to see what tax you should be putting aside. You can use our SARS income tax calculator to work out the monthly amounts. You will unfortunately have to register as a provisional taxpayer and submit IRP6's.
