Does my Singapore company need to file a corporate income tax return every year even if it’s dormant or making a loss?

Even if your Singapore company is dormant, has “No Business Done”, or is making a loss, IRAS may still require ECI and/or an annual corporate income tax return for the relevant YA. This guide gives a practical yes/no workflow to check myTax Portal and IRAS notices, confirm whether a waiver or simplified dormant filing applies, and document your decision each year.

When must your Singapore company withhold tax on payments to non-residents, and how do you run the workflow end to end?

Singapore withholding tax is triggered by specific IRAS income types and by when amounts are paid or credited to a non-resident, not simply because a vendor is overseas. This guide shows finance teams how to classify payments, confirm non-resident status, apply treaty evidence where relevant, file the right IRAS form, pay by the statutory deadline, and retain an audit-ready evidence pack.

When does a Singapore company need to file ECI and its annual corporate income tax return and how do you run both on one workable calendar?

Singapore companies must plan for two linked timelines: ECI is generally due within 3 months of financial year-end, and the annual corporate income tax return is e-filed by 30 November of the relevant Year of Assessment. This guide shows how to run both as one workflow with internal cut-offs, clear ownership, a tax-ready close pack, and early checks for waiver and form type so filing doesn’t become a November scramble.

When do I need to file my Singapore company’s Corporate Income Tax Return with IRAS?

Corporate Income Tax filing is a fixed annual deliverable that drives your close timetable and myTax Portal authorisations, and missing it can create avoidable disruption. This guide shows how to map your FYE to the correct YA, choose the right IRAS form (C-S (Lite), C-S or C), confirm whether any waiver applies, and e-File with a clean proof-of-filing trail.
