You can invest in as many retirement annuities (RAs) as you wish, but the tax benefit is determined in aggregate, not in respect of each individual RA. In other words, the tax relief on contributions is limited to 27,5% of gross remuneration or taxable income (subject to the annual cap of R350,000), irrespective of the number of RA memberships. And the tax-free lump sum portion may be claimed only once.
