Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do I need to file personal income tax if I’m an EP holder?
Yes. All income earned in Singapore is taxable, and tax residency status will impact your rate.
What is the tax rate for personal income in Singapore?
Progressive from 0% to 22% for residents. Non-residents are taxed at a flat 15% or resident rates (whichever is higher).
How do I get tax clearance when leaving Singapore?
Form IR21 must be filed before your departure. We help prepare and file it while advising on final CPF and tax settlement.
Can dividends I pay myself be taxed?
In Singapore, dividends from after-tax profits are generally not taxed again. We confirm the status of your distribution.
