Except where the answer to your tax question expressly states to the contrary, the answer will be based on the three assumptions set out below:

• You are RSA resident, ordinarily resident and domiciled.
• You did not make any capital gains during the tax year(s) in question, other than as detailed in your question.
• You comply with in full (and shall continue to comply with) all obligations under tax law.

If any of these assumptions does not apply to your question or personal circumstances we recommend that you resubmit your question to us advising us which assumption (s) do not apply (as the answer provided by the tax expert may be inaccurate, incomplete or incorrect as a result of this).
 

• Answers are intended for general guidance only.
• The Question & Answer covers RSA taxation only.
• Although the tax experts are committed to providing a fast service, they cannot guarantee that answers to questions will always be received by you within 3-5 working days. They reserve the right to refrain from answering specific questions at their sole discretion.
• If you require specific advice, which is beyond this scope you can contact us for details of our consultancy service or contact a suitably qualified specialist before any action is taken or any decision is made to refrain from taking action.
• Your statutory rights in the Republic of South Africa are not affected.
   

Please note that the answers contain general guidance only and do not constitute accountancy or other professional advice.

Although the aim is always to ensure that you are provided with as a comprehensive answer as possible within the limited scope, all liability is excluded for any loss which may arise as a result of:

• Your reliance upon an answer where you know or should have known that one of the assumptions did not apply (if you are not sure then please ask!);
• Your reliance on this service for non-RSA taxation issues and/or investment advice and/or specialist advice (please seek advice from a specialist in these areas - we are happy to recommend one to you!);
• Your reliance on an answer which has subsequently become inaccurate, incomplete or incorrect as a result of future changes in the law or changes in practice by government or regulatory authorities (eg SARS) or changes to your personal circumstances (please feel free to submit a fresh question at a future date!).

We recommend that for a specific accountancy or tax problem or matter, a suitably qualified accountant, independent financial adviser or tax specialist should be consulted. We are happy to recommend one to you.
