South Africa's recent updates to its dividend tax protocols are set to impact companies from Kuwait, the Netherlands, and Sweden, requiring them to pay dividends tax on earnings from South African subsidiaries. Under the new rules, companies holding at least 10% of the capital will face a 5% tax rate, while those with smaller stakes will be taxed at 10%.

South Africa aims to apply the protocol retrospectively to 1 April 2012. It is expected that this aspect will be challenged in court as it goes against the well-established tax principle that advocates against amendments to agreements being backdated.
