About this service

Registering for GST and filing returns

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is charged on most goods and services in Singapore. Registration is compulsory once taxable turnover passes S$1 million over 12 months, or is expected to, and businesses below that can choose to register.

Once registered, a business charges GST on its sales, claims GST on its purchases and files GST returns with IRAS, usually every quarter.

Questions

GST Services: common questions.

When must I register for GST?

When taxable turnover has passed, or is expected to pass, S$1 million over 12 months.

Should I register voluntarily?

It can help if your customers are GST-registered businesses, but it adds filing obligations. We help you weigh it up.

How often are GST returns filed?

Usually every quarter, with each return due one month after the end of the period.
