Statute overview

About this statute

This section updates the transfer duty value bands and threshold amounts. This provision sets updated income tax rates and rebate amounts, and says when they apply. The provision updates certain tax-related amounts and vehicle cost limits, and it treats the change as having started on 1 March 2020 for relevant assessment years. This section raises the income-tax exemption limit for certain foreign-service remuneration to R1,25 million, increases the tax-free investment cap to R36 000, and imposes a 40% tax consequence on excess contributions. The carbon tax rate is set at R127 per ton of carbon dioxide equivalent, subject to subsections (2) and (3).
