Good to know

If you simply want to start investing your funds abroad every month, you can make use of your R1m Single Discretionary Allowance; without having to provide a Tax Clearance Certificate!

(Remember, when managing your limit this allowance covers travel, gifts and a number of other types of transactions including investments.)

Guidance & assistance

Once a clear plan has been established, our Wealth & Investment Specialists will help you with the execution.

This will include helping you navigate the journey through the enhanced requirements of establishing offshore investments, and expert guidance from an exchange control point of view.

You will further receive assistance in coordinating exchange control requirements through a select team of
cross-border advisory specialists. They will walk you through and expedite the process of obtaining a tax clearance certificate (if the amount is between R1m and R10m) to make use of the foreign investment allowance.
