This is an entity outside of South Africa who holds shares in a company which is resident in South Africa. Such share certificates must, within 30 days of their acquisition be endorsed "non-resident" for the purposes of exchange control. Dividends on such shares are then subject to non-resident shareholders tax, a withholding tax of 15%. A non-resident is a person (natural or juristic) who mainly resides outside of South Africa.
