Posted 8 July 2014

On fringe benefit 3808, who pays tax on it, do the employee pay tax & does the employer get back from SARS for this? How does this work?

The employee will always pay tax on the fringe benefit as it is seen as part of their income. The employer will get a tax deduction as this is part of their staff costs, an expense for them.
