South Africa
Financial emigration, SARB exchange control, family security: a structurally growing South African profile.
Financial emigration
SARS (the tax authority) and the SARB (central bank) govern capital outflow via formal emigration. The 2021 reforms simplified but tightened documentation: a 5-10 year provenance dossier is required.
South African exit tax
Cessation of tax residence triggers a deemed disposal on worldwide assets (excluding SA property and pensions). Preventive planning of 12-18 months with a South African tax practitioner is indispensable.
Non-fiscal drivers
Personal security, infrastructure quality, legal certainty are the prevailing reasons over pure tax advantage. Ticino offers the package.
