Singapore's tax system is one of the most attractive in Asia. Non-resident companies that do not conduct local business do not pay corporate tax, dividend tax, or capital gains tax. Resident companies and those with domestic or overseas income in Singapore pay income tax at 17%.
- However, there are a number of exemptions on corporate tax:
- - The first €67,150 of income is exempt from tax for the first three years after the company is registered in Singapore.
- - Income received over €67,150 but less than €201,450 is taxed at a discount of 50% of the normal rate for the first three years.
Dividend payments made by Singapore resident companies are not subject to withholding tax (except for cooperatives) and VAT under the single-tier corporate tax system. Singapore also does not impose income tax on dividend payments made by resident companies.
Rates on other passive income may be reduced by applying Double Taxation Treaties.
Compulsory GST registration is only required if there are domestic sales and the annual turnover exceeds SGD 1,000,000. Accordingly, exports and imports are not taxed.
