What is Tax Emigration?

Tax emigration is the official SARS process of changing your tax residency status so you are no longer taxed on worldwide income.

This change can prevent unnecessary tax and penalties.

If you are moving abroad — or already living overseas — and don’t plan to return, completing the tax emigration process is the key to simplifying your South African tax obligations.

    Why It Matters for South Africans Abroad

    As a South African living overseas, you may be taxed on your global income if you haven’t formally changed your residency status. Without proper financial emigration, SARS still sees you as a tax resident.

    This can lead to:

    • Double taxation on your earnings
    • Ongoing SARS reporting requirements
    • Potential penalties for non-compliance

    Completing ceasing tax residency in South Africa protects you from unnecessary tax burdens and gives clarity over what you owe — and where you owe it.
