Attention remote workers enjoying the sun abroad! 🌴 New Income tax and USC rules, effective from July 1, 2023 Remote workers who spend most of the year in sunny countries — a trend that gained pace during the pandemic — could find themselves caught by new Revenue Commissioners rules. Here is a summary of the new regulations: 📌Employers must obtain prior authorisation in writing from Revenue before they can withhold income tax and USC from the pay of non-resident employees for time spent working in Ireland. 📌If employers do not obtain this approval, they will have to withhold these taxes for all of an employee's pay. Dive deeper into the changes in our latest blog post. 🔗https://bit.ly/3LuIIsh Don't forget to like and share this post

South Africa is undergoing significant changes in its approach to taxing remote workers and their employers, according to recent proposals by the National Treasury and the South African Revenue Services (SARS). Here's a summary of the key points: Removal of Distinction Between Remote and Non-Remote Workers: One major proposed change is to remove the current distinction between remote and non-remote workers. This means that employers of South Africa-based remote workers would be required to deduct pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) tax directly from their employees' salaries. Mandatory Registration for Foreign Employers: For foreign employers, the proposals include mandatory steps to comply with South African tax laws. These steps include registering for PAYE, UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund), and SDL (Skills Development Levies), establishing a branch within South Africa, and obtaining a SARS income tax number. These requirements aim to ensure that foreign employers contribute to UIF and SDL at the standard rate of 1% of an employee’s remuneration. Residence-Based Tax System: South Africa employs a residence-based tax system, requiring all residents to pay tax on their global income, regardless of where it was earned. This system includes several tests to determine tax residency, such as the "physical presence" test and considerations for the source of income. For example, employment income from a company abroad is exempt from tax for the first R1.25 million if the individual spends a minimum number of days outside the country within a tax year. Contact me for details. Concerns Over New Regulations: The proposed regulations could potentially discourage foreign employers from hiring South African talent due to the added tax compliance complexities. This might adversely impact South Africa's attractiveness as a remote work destination and could lead to a reevaluation of employment contracts with South African workers. Public Commentary and Implementation: The proposed amendments were open for public commentary, with a deadline for submissions. The final bill, after considering public input, will be tabled in parliament for enactment. It's crucial for both remote workers and their employers, especially those based outside South Africa, to stay informed about these developments and prepare for compliance. These changes underscore a significant shift in how remote work is taxed in South Africa, with implications for both local remote workers and international companies employing South African talent. As these proposals are subject to legislative processes, those affected should monitor developments closely and consider consulting with tax professionals to navigate the new requirements effectively. _______________________________ Need assistance navigating the complexities of tax changes in South Africa?

🤖 We did a social media post a few weeks ago on April Fool’s Day about how the German tax authorities had announced a fictitious additional 15% “nomad beach tax” for remote workers spending more than 90 days abroad. 😮 It was all quite light-hearted until a few days later, a number of people sent us a link to this article published by Business Insider about how New York and other states are using AI to track down remote workers who are avoiding taxes. 📈 Despite having lower audit staff, the state Department of Taxation and Finance announced that there were 771,000 audits in New York in 2022 which was a 56% 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳! ❓ The reason behind the increase in audits, despite lower staff?

As remote work becomes more ubiquitous, tax law and other regulations will have to adapt. Here's an example of how some states produce a "double taxation" problem for remote workers.🔍 🏠 Remote Work's Tax Implications: With the surge in remote work since COVID-19, employees face new tax challenges. The location of both the worker and the employer can dictate tax liabilities, potentially leading to complex multi-state tax situations. 💼 Dual Taxation Risk: In most cases, working across state lines won't lead to double taxation due to credit systems. However, in states with 'convenience of the employer' rules, like New York, Connecticut, Delaware, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania, remote workers might face taxes in both their state of residence and their employer’s state. 📊 Understanding 'Convenience of the Employer' Rules: These rules allow certain states to tax non-resident employees of in-state companies. This can lead to scenarios where remote workers owe income tax to a state they don’t physically work in. 🔄 Reciprocity Agreements and Credits: Some states have agreements that simplify tax obligations based on residency, not work location. These reciprocity agreements, along with tax credits, help prevent double taxation. For example, a Maryland resident working remotely for a Pennsylvania company only needs to file taxes in Maryland, thanks to a reciprocity agreement. However, without such agreements, workers might need to file tax returns in both states but can often claim a tax credit to avoid double taxation. 🔑 Takeaway: Taxes can get complicated, but we need to understand the commitments in the short-run, and serve as a force for good to influence reforms that promote innovation and well-being longer run; employers should pay attention to these reciprocal agreements! #RemoteWork #TaxSeason2024 #StateIncomeTax #Telecommuting https://lnkd.in/eT3iZEap
