Since amendments to the South African value-added tax (VAT) legislation regarding electronic services entered into effect on 1 April 2019, there have been some significant changes in the interpretation and application of the VAT legislation pertaining to electronic services. Entities from all industries, a far broader group than traditional technology companies, are being affected, especially multinationals. Nonresident suppliers providing services to recipients in South Africa should take particular care to ensure that they are familiar with the interpretation and application of the VAT legislation and that they continue to monitor relevant developments.
