Charlie says: 2 February 2017 at 14:35 Good Day I would like to know who is right in this scenario: a SA resident and the SA company I work for received a construction contract in Sierra Leone, November 2015 we left with promises that there will be no tax deducted. Just before we left our SA employment was terminated and we were rehired by the newly established Sierra Leone company (same name, just now Sierra Leone ltd). We work everything according to the SARS 183/60 rule In the meantime, salary and tax deductions went on like normal into our SA banks, now that we are back (Sierra Leone contract terminated and rehired by SA company) and looking for our promised tax money, the answer is that there is no tax pay outs, we worked for a Sierra Leone company. Is this all correct? |
