Conclusion

What Is GST in Singapore

In Singapore, GST is a consumption tax levied on the supply of goods and services and the goods imported into Singapore from other countries. In many other countries around the world Goods and Service Tax is also known as Value Added Tax.

Goods and Service Tax is an indirect tax, provided by GST-registered businesses applied to the selling price of goods and services. The current GST rate is 7%.

The end customer is usually the ultimate payee of GST. Thus, GST never becomes or behaves as a cost to the company. On the contrary, businesses act as tax collecting agents on behalf of the Singaporean government.

In short, the basic principle of GST is summarized as follows:

.

What Does GST Mean for a Company in Singapore?

For every GST-registered company, must collect GST from their customers for the goods and services provided. You must then pay the tax collected and must be paid to the tax authorities every quarter via Goods and Service tax filing.

For example, for your product or service, if you charge S $ 200, you must invoice them S $ 207 (S$200 for your service plus 7% GST).

Companies in Singapore are not automatically GST-registered. Companies that have met certain conditions have to apply to IRAS to become a GST registered company before it is allowed to charge and collect GST.

The GST and Types of Supplies

Singapore Goods and Service Tax classifies supplies into four categories. These 4 types of supplies are further classified into Taxable Supply and Non-Taxable Supply.

• Standard-rated supplies
• Zero-rated supplies
• Exempt supplies
• Out-of-scope supplies.

What is "Taxable Turnover"?

The total value of all supplies that are made taxable in Singapore (excluding GST) in the course or furtherance of business is known as "Taxable Turnover." It includes the value of supplies to all standard-rated(GST 7%) & zero-rated(GST 0%), but it excludes the out-of-scope supplies and sale of capital assets and exempt supplies.

Under Section 21(3) of the Singapore Goods and Service Act, the value of exempt supplies that are international services should also be excluded from your total taxable supplies to determine your liability for Goods and Service Tax registration.

Various Singapore GST Schemes to Help Businesses

Singapore GST Calculation

1. To calculate Singapore GST at a 7% rate is very easy: just multiply the GST exclusive value, say $300, with 0.07, i.e $300 * 07 = $21 (GST amount)

2. To get GST inclusive amount just multiply GST exclusive value $300 by 1.07, i.e $300 * 1.07 = $321 (GST inclusive amount)

3. If your price/value includes GST, then to get the GST part the inclusive amount you need divide the GST inclusive amount, say $214, by 107 and multiply by 7, i.e ($214 / 107) * 7 = $14 (GST Value)

4. To get GST exclusive amount while knowing GST inclusive value, you need to multiply GST inclusive price $214 by 100 and then divide the result by 107, i.e $214 * 100 = $21400 / 107 = $200

GST When Goods Are Imported From Overseas Locations

GST is imposed on almost all goods imported into Singapore, regardless of whether the importer is GST-registered. However, GST payable is suspended or deferred if there are any specific reliefs, exemptions for certain goods, or special schemes.

All Imported goods are subject to GST or duty payment. A custom permit is required to account for the import and tax payment of the goods.

Below are the Dutiable goods, which incur both GST and duty,

• Intoxicating liquors
• Tobacco products
• Motor vehicles
• Petroleum products

All others are non-dutiable goods and incur only GST. 7% GST is imposed of the CIF (cost, insurance, and freight) value, which includes duties (if it is a dutiable good) and other charges, costs, and expenses incidental to the sale and delivery of the goods into Singapore, whether or not shown on the invoice.

The tax is always paid on the Value of Import when goods are imported to Singapore. The import value will include any customs duty payable and the Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF), etc. The Singapore Customs charge the GST on the imports.

GST on Imported Goods

The amount of GST payable is computed based on the CIF value (cost, insurance, freight) of the goods plus all duties payable.

GST need not be paid for goods (except for dutiable products) with CIF value of not more than $400.

When the CIF value is more than $400; the entire sum will be subject to GST.

When Does the Customer Pays GST For Imported Goods

GST Calculation on Imported Goods

Goods and Services Tax is imposed on all goods imported into Singapore.

The calculation is based on the below key points,

• Customs values of the goods, plus all duties, or
• Value of the last selling price(LSP) plus all duties, if there has been more than one sale (when the last buyer is the party declaring the payment permit)

Examples on calculating of GST for Non-Dutiable Goods and  Dutiable Goods imported to Singapore

Non-Dutiable Goods

GST is payable @ 7% x Customs value or Last Selling Price (LSP)

If 100 boxes of Pens were bought at S $ 900 by company X, the overseas freight, handling, and insurance charges to ship the Pens to Singapore cost S $ 100. Company X sold the Pens to Company Y for $1,500 before the Pens reaches Singapore. What is the GST payable by Company Y?

GST payable by Company Y = 7% x S$1,500=S$105

Dutiable Goods

GST is payable @ 7% x (Customs value or Last Selling Price + payable duties)

If a motor car is imported by company X and was bought at S $ 100,000 on Free on Board (FOB), it incoterms the overseas freight, handling, and insurance charges to ship the car to Singapore cost S $ 1,000. Assuming the excise duty for motor cars is 20% of the customs value, the total GST payable amount will be?

Customs value of car = S$101,000

Duties payable = S$101,000 x 20%=S$20,200

Thus, GST payable = 7% x (S$101,000 + 20,200)=S$8,484

What Is the Singapore GST Voucher?

The Singapore Government introduced the Goods and Service Tax Voucher in Budget 2012, a permanent scheme to help the Singaporeans with lower income and cope with the increasing now and then cost of living.

Every year, the eligible Singaporeans can look forward to subsidies and support given under this scheme. It comes in three separate components - Cash, U-Save and MediSave. The permanent nature of the GST Voucher makes it sustainable support, rather than temporary relief.

Below mentioned are in the detail components of Vouchers,

1. CASH: Provides some cash for immediate needs to the lower-income Singaporeans. It is paid in August each year.

2. MEDISAVE: For elderly Singaporeans aged 65 and above, it provides a top-up to their CPF MediSave account to support their medical needs. It is paid in August each year.

3. U-SAVE- It provides ​ quarterly rebates to offset their utility bills to lower- and middle-income HDB households. They are paid in January, April, July, and October each year.​

Singapore GST Registration

When Do Companies Need to Register for GST?

The Goods and Service Tax registration in Singapore falls into two categories: Compulsory Registration and Voluntary Registration. As it is a self-assessed tax, you need to monitor whether you need to be registered for GST.

Compulsory GST Registration
The tax needs to be collected by Companies when:

• The taxable turnover of the company, when it exceeds S$1 million for the past 12 months, OR
• If the taxable turnover of the company in the next 12 months expects to exceed S$1 million.

To determine if the companies need to register for GST, they are expected to monitor their taxable income at the end of every quarter.

Businesses that have exceeded S$1 million in taxable turnover during the last 12 months are required to register for Goods and Service Tax within 30 days from the end of the previous quarter when this event occurred.

Companies that expect to exceed S$1 million in taxable turnover during the next 12 months must register for GST within 30 days of such determination.

Voluntary GST Registration
When a GST-exempt business elects to register for GST in Singapore, voluntary registration is made even though it isn't required by law.

If your business satisfies any of the below-mentioned criteria, you can voluntarily register for Goods and Service,

• For Supplies which are Taxable (local sale of products/ Service provision);
• Supplies that are Out-of-scope (e.g., refer to sales of goods that did not enter Singapore and products in transit.); or
• For supplies of financial services that are exempted (e.g., provision of loans)

For companies who opt for voluntary GST registration must complete 2 e-learning courses and pass a quiz. There is not required to take the courses and quiz if:

• You have experience managing other GST-registered businesses;
• The person preparing your Goods and Service Tax returns is an Accredited Tax Advisor or Practitioner; or
• The person making your GST returns has completed both courses within the past two years.

Once you comply with the Singapore GST regulations, you must remain registered at least two years after you are registered voluntarily. To maintain all your records, filing the Goods and Service Tax return on time every quarter, helps businesses get de-registered from GST and ceased for at least five years. If the tax authority imposes any additional conditions, you may also have to comply with it.

Exemption from Registration

If you only make zero-rated supplies, you can apply for exemption from GST registration, even if your total taxable turnover exceeds the S$1 million.

IRAS will approve the exemptions if your total taxable supplies are zero-rates and more than 90%, and, if your input tax is higher than your output tax.
