Simplifying GST In Singapore For Your Business
What is GST and How Does It Affect You?
GST (Goods and Services Tax) is a 9% consumption tax imposed on most goods and services supplied in Singapore and on imports. If you’re a GST-registered business, you’re legally required to charge GST on taxable supplies and submit accurate returns to IRAS.
Whether you’re registering, filing, or reviewing your tax positions—getting it wrong can cost your business penalties, cash flow issues, or IRAS audits.
We help businesses manage their full GST lifecycle with confidence.
