How will my Old Mutual RA be taxed if I reside overseas?


Question:

I am a Swazi citizen, resident in Swaziland. I have an Old Mutual RA. 1. Will the lump sum payout at 55 (to thereafter) be subject to the RSA tax on lump sum payouts? 2. Will the monthly pension, thereafter, be subject to RSA tax? There is a double-taxation treaty between RSA and Swaziland. Thank you!

Answer:

Andrew, Your Old Mutual RA will be subject to SA lump sum tax and income tax as the source of the lump sum/income is deemed to be South African.
