FAQ: Am I required to submit an income tax return if I am a South African resident but I work overseas and I do not earn other income from a South African (SA) source except for exempt interest income from a South African source?

If you are a tax resident of South Africa, you are subject to tax on worldwide income, irrespective of where the income is earned.
