dc.description.abstractThe difference between South Africa’s domestic PE definition and the PE definition in its various DTCs and regional MTCs suggest some material inconsistency in South Africa’s PE policy. The research question this minor dissertation seeks to answer is whether South Africa has a coherent PE policy for source-based taxation. In addressing this question, this thesis considered what South Africa’s PE negotiating policy is and identified trends in its tax treaty practice in order to determine any inconsistency with its domestic PE definition. The key finding arising from the research of this minor dissertation is that South Africa does not have a coherent PE policy as its domestic policy is based on the OECD PE definition from time to time, whereas its tax treaty negotiating position and tax treaty practice is closely aligned with the 2006 SA MTC. Finally, this thesis provide recommendations to South Africa’s relevant fiscal authorities on how to reform the PE policy in a coherent manner.
