Tough tax rules for two-pot system
Lentswe, Klerksdorp - The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has warned any persons who intend to withdraw from the savings pot of the imminent Two-Pot Retirement system, the taxman will take his dues. The much-talked-about Two-Pot Retirement System came into effect on Sunday September 1.
While it’s called the ‘two-pot’ system, under the system, an individual’s retirement fund contributions will actually be split between three components (or ‘pots’): the vested, savings, and retirement components.
The vested component contains all accumulated retirement fund contributions made until August 31, 2024.
