Expat & Foreign Income Tax
We help South African tax residents working abroad navigate the expat tax rules introduced under Section 10(1)(o)(ii) of the Income Tax Act. Our team determines your tax residency status, applies the foreign income exemption where applicable, and ensures you claim foreign tax credits to avoid double taxation.
