Input tax incurred on certain expenses is not claimable

For business owners who are GST-registered, you may be eligible to claim the Goods and Services Tax (GST) incurred for your business purchases and expenses. However, when making your input tax claims, remember that the following expenses cannot be claimed as input tax:

1) Medical expenses incurred for your staff unless –

  2. b) the medical treatment in respect of expenses incurred on or after 1 Oct 2021 is provided in connection with any health risk or requirement arising on account of the nature of the work required of your staff or his work environment; and
    1. – the medical expenses are incurred pursuant to any written law of Singapore concerning the medical treatment or the provision of a medical facility or medical practitioner; or
    2. – the medical treatment is related to COVID-19 and the staff undergoes such medical treatment pursuant to any written advisory (including industry circular) issued by, or posted on the website of the Government or a public authority

2) Medical and accident insurance premiums incurred for your staff unless the insurance or payment of compensation is obligatory under the WICA or under any collective agreement within the meaning of the IRA;

3) Costs and running expenses incurred on motor cars that are either:

  1. a) registered under the business’s or individual’s name, or

Personal Tax
If you are a Singaporean, Singapore Permanent Resident or a foreigner who has lived and worked in Singapore for at least 183 days in the tax year, you are required to pay personal taxes on your chargeable income as a tax resident. Non-residents who have lived and worked in Singapore for less than 183 days in the tax year may also be required to pay taxes. The corresponding forms you will have to fill out include:

• Form B1 (individual tax residents)
• Form B (self-employed)
• Form M (non-residents)

Other taxes, that individuals may have to pay, include those imposed on property, rental income, stamp duty, motor vehicles and Central Provident Fund (CPF) contributions.

A corporate secretary needs to be familiar with the Singapore Companies Act and the various
requirements stipulated by the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) and the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS).
