Please advise the tax rules for working outside of SA? No income is earned in SA only abroad.

How long have you been working overseas? Do you intend to return to South Africa?

I just started recently working overseas. Yes I do
intend to return to South Africa after the completion of the contract and in between to renew my visa. It's a short term contract for 6 - 7 months.

Please check the questions on exempt foreign income to see if you qualify.
