Am I a provisional tax payer if I am fully employed by a foreign Co but permanently reside in SA?

I have taken the test to see if I need to be a provisional taxpayer and it states that I should not. However, I am employed by a London-based organisation and am permanently resident in SA. I get a payslip every month and am on a permanent contract. I dont pay tax in the UK and SARS advised that I should do so as a provisional tax payer. Is this correct?

Did you take a test via TaxTim? If you do not have PAYE deducted in month then yes you need to register as a provisional taxpayer.
