Due to the appealing employment opportunities in countries outside of South Africa, many individuals are opting to rather work abroad than in the Republic. In order to accommodate individuals working abroad, there is an exemption available for those who are carrying out their employment in a foreign country. Confusion arises as to all the requirements that have to be met, as well as all the exclusions to the rule regarding this exemption. For this reason, ProBeta Training offers a concise session for discussing these matters, with practical application examples.
