IRAS Student Tax Filing: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn if you need to file taxes as a student in Singapore and what your obligations are if you earn income from part-time work.
This scheme ensures that students who earn income through part-time work or other sources meet their legal tax obligations in Singapore.
Who it's for
This is for students who earn an income that exceeds the established taxable threshold.
What you get
By following this process, you ensure you are in compliance with national tax laws.
What it costs you
The main cost is the time required to complete and submit your filing every year.
The catch to know
Many students earn less than the threshold and will not have to pay any tax. However, even if you do not owe money, you are still required to file if you receive a notification to do so.
How to apply
- Check your total earnings from the previous year.
- Determine if your income meets the threshold for filing.
- Log in to the official portal if you have been notified to file.
- Follow the digital instructions to submit your details.
