Tax Implications

This account qualifies as a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA). Interest earned does not count toward your taxable income, provided your contributions stay within the SARS limits of R36,000 annually and R500,000 over your lifetime. Any contributions above these limits are taxed at 40%, so it’s important to monitor your deposits.
