Do I earn enough to pay tax?

Hi Tim

I started working online and get around R2000 -R3000 a week. Sometimes less, sometimes more. Some of the work I get is out of the country. So I just wanted to ask, must I pay tax or is the amount too little? Is there a way I can work it out or will it be best to just go in to their offices?

Yes you do need to pay tax as you are earning more than the current tax threshold. Please Register for TaxTimand also see our blog on How to get a SARS tax number
