Overview

What is Goods and service Tax?

Goods and service tax (GST) Singapore is an indirect tax levied on the import and supply of most of the goods and services sold for consumption in Singapore. Singapore has the lowest GST rate in the world at 7%. This 7% tax is levied on the selling price of goods and services. The GST is paid by the end consumer, which is then remitted to the government by the businesses. Hence, GST never becomes an additional cost to pay for the companies. The businesses only act as the tax collector for the government and provide revenue for the government.
