Singapore Fact-File Part 3:
Individual Business International Taxation

3.1 Singapore Individual Business International Tax Liability

Taxes incurred in foreign countries

As Singapore operates a territorial tax system, income received from overseas sources is not generally taxable in Singapore, unless remitted there.


Tax reporting abroad

Due to the territorial nature of Singapore’s tax system, there is no requirement to report income earned overseas in the tax return, as long as it is not remitted to Singapore.
