Can a non-resident South African citizen take out inheritance from SA?

  Written by Marc   Posted 23 August 2013

I've lived out of SA for 22 years and have held dual nationality (SA and UK) for the last 12 years. I rarely visit SA and have not spent more than 3 weeks there in any of the last 20 years. My question is about inheritance. If I inherit in SA, will I be allowed to take my inheritance out of SA? I have never formally emigrated, still hold a SA passport in addition to my UK one and have no assets in SA. Would it make things easier if I renounced my SA citizenship?

South African Expat working in Dubai

  Written by Marc   Posted 23 August 2013

Hi Tim,

I have been working in Dubai since 1 January 2011 and would like to know do I need to declare my Dubai income on my tax return? I have only been back to South Africa once for 28 days in August 2012. I am working for a local Dubai company, with an open ended contract.

For the last 2 tax years I have submitted my tax return, declaring my South African sourced income, interest and rental income.

Provisional tax Period 1 query

  Written by Marc   Posted 22 August 2013

Hi. I am a provisional tax payer for the first time due to earning rental income greater than the threshold. I received (& was taxed on) a bonus from my employer in June this year. How do I treat the bonus payment on the provisional tax return (period 1)?
If I include it as part of taxable income, my tax payable is inflated as bonuses are taxed differently from normal income. Please advise.
