Michael is a maintenance superintendent working in Namibia. He believed that paying tax in Namibia automatically meant that he would receive relief from tax in South Africa.

For South Africans earning income abroad, Double Taxation Agreements (DTAs) can play an important role in determining taxing rights and providing relief where the same income could otherwise be taxed in both countries. However, the existence of a DTA does not mean that relief can simply be assumed.

Your tax residency, the source and nature of your income, the applicable treaty provisions and supporting documentation all need to be considered when establishing the correct tax treatment.

A professional review can help determine whether a DTA applies to your circumstances and what relief may be available: https://bit.ly/3OW14r8

Woon en werk jy buite Suid-Afrika? Jou belastingstatus volg nie noodwendig jou adres nie.

Om in die buiteland te woon en werk, beteken nie dat jou Suid-Afrikaanse belastingverpligtinge outomaties tot ’n einde gekom het nie.

Daar is wel een belangrike vraag wat jy jouself moet vra; Sien die Suid-Afrikaanse Inkomstediens jou as ’n nie-belastinginwoner?

Voordat jy jou volgende belastingopgawe indien, maak seker dat jy jou belastinginwoner-status verstaan en dat die korrekte stappe geneem is.

Moving overseas does not automatically bring your South African tax obligations to an end.

Your tax residency status determines how your income may be treated in South Africa, and simply no longer living or working here does not necessarily settle the question.

Before submitting your South African tax return, the more important question is whether your current tax residency position has actually been established and is recognised by SARS.

Kabelo accepted a senior operations role at a mining company in Botswana and assumed that moving abroad automatically changed his South African tax residency.

Tax residency does not end simply because you relocate or spend most of your time outside South Africa. Your residency position must first be established according to the applicable legal tests and your individual circumstances.

Where an individual remains a South African tax resident while earning income abroad, the applicable Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) may also need to be considered to determine which country has taxing rights and whether relief from double taxation may be available.

A professional assessment can help establish your South African tax residency and whether the relevant DTA provisions apply to your circumstances: https://bit.ly/3OW14r8

Filing your tax returns does not necessarily mean your tax affairs are compliant.

For South Africans living and working abroad, your tax residency status, foreign income, travel history, and previous filings should all align with the position you have declared to SARS.

Even small inconsistencies can raise questions and potentially result in penalties, audits, or complications when you require tax clearance.

Living abroad and unsure whether your tax position stands up to scrutiny? Speak to our team about a tax diagnostic review and identify potential compliance risks before SARS does: https://bit.ly/3Nlshmt

One message stood out at Electra Mining Africa 2026 as moving skilled talent across Africa requires more than simply getting people where they need to be.

For mining businesses operating across multiple jurisdictions, expatriate tax, cross-border mobility and compliance can quickly become part of the operational equation.

At Electra Mining Africa 2026, Nicole Aramu, Project Administrator, and Rehnu Vallabh, Senior Tax Consultant, engaged with professionals across the mining sector, including Keegan Friesling, Senior Graphic Designer at ATT Mining Solutions, Mining Business Africa, Creamer Media, Copperbelt Katanga Mining, and Afromix, on the realities facing businesses operating across Africa.

David is a mechanical engineer working on a mining project in Kenya. He believed that because tax was deducted from his salary in Kenya, he no longer had to worry about his South African tax obligations.

However, South African tax residents are generally taxed on their worldwide income. Where the same income may be subject to tax in both countries, the Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) between South Africa and Kenya may provide relief, depending on the individual's circumstances and the relevant treaty provisions.

DTA relief should not simply be assumed. The correct tax position needs to be established and supported by the appropriate documentation. Without reviewing his circumstances, David could remain exposed to South African tax consequences despite already paying tax in Kenya.

Valuable conversations, new connections, and shared perspectives in Johannesburg!

As the “Hexagon Regional Mining Forum Johannesburg” comes to a close, Tax Consulting Africa is pleased to have been part of an event that brought mining professionals and industry leaders together to connect and exchange ideas.

The conversations and connections made reinforced the importance of considering the people behind cross-border mining operations, the tax positions, mobility, as well as compliance requirements that companies must manage to deploy their skilled talent across Africa.

Managing employees across borders comes with complex tax considerations. Speak to the Tax Consulting Africa team about managing expatriate and international tax across Africa: https://bit.ly/3Nlshmt
