Singapore Corporate Tax Incentives
Singapore imposes a flat corporate income tax (CIT) rate of 17% on both local and foreign companies. This makes it one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the ASEAN region.
Additionally, Singapore offers various tax incentives and exemptions to encourage business growth and investment, such as:
Start-up tax exemption: Eligible start-up companies can enjoy full tax exemption on their first $100,000 of chargeable income for the first year of assessment, and 50% tax exemption on the next $100,000 of chargeable income for the second and third years of assessment.
Partial tax exemption: Companies with annual turnover of up to S$100 million can enjoy a partial tax exemption of 50% on the first S$300,000 of their chargeable income.
Pioneer incentive: Companies engaged in new and innovative activities can apply for the Pioneer incentive, which provides full tax exemption on their income for the first 10 years of operation.
Development and expansion incentive: Companies investing in new or expanded projects in Singapore can apply for the Development and Expansion Incentive, which provides tax deductions for capital expenditure incurred on the project.
These tax incentives, combined with Singapore's efficient tax administration and stable political environment, make it an attractive destination for businesses looking to set up or expand their operations in Southeast Asia.
