Offshore Tax working for SA company



I work offshore for a SA company and as such have monthly tax deductions. I have been out the country for more than 183 days of which 105 days were consecutive. Do I qualify for tax exemption and able to claim my tax back?

Please read through our questions on exempt foreign income If the company has taxed you and you meet the criterion then yes you will be able to claim a portion of the tax paid as a refund.
