How is employee income tax handled?
Singapore has no monthly Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system. Instead:
- Employers submit annual IR8A forms to IRAS by March 1
- Employees file their own tax returns
- For departing foreign employees, employers file IR21 and may need to withhold salary for tax clearance
