South African tax resident investors relating to REITs**
The dividend distribution by a REIT received by South African tax residents must be included in their gross income
and will not be exempt in terms of the ordinary dividend exemption in section 10(1)(k)(i) of the Income Tax Act No. 58
of 1962 (“the Act”) as a result of paragraph (aa) of the proviso thereto which provides that dividends distributed by a
REIT are not exempt from income tax.
No dividend withholding tax will be deducted from dividends payable to a South African tax resident qualifying for
exemption from dividend withholding tax provided that the investor has provided the following forms to their Central
Securities Depository Participant (“CSDP”) or broker, as the case may be in respect of its participatory interest:
a) a declaration that the distribution is exempt from dividends tax; and
b) a written undertaking to inform their CSDP or broker, as the case may be, should the circumstances affecting the
exemption change or the beneficial owner cease to be the beneficial owner,
both in the form prescribed by the South African Revenue Service. South African tax resident investors are advised to
contact their CSDP or broker, as the case may be, to arrange for the abovementioned documents to be submitted
prior to payment of the distribution, if such documents have not already been submitted.
