Do I need to File?
Corporate income tax filing with IRAS is compulsory for all companies operating in Singapore. The obligation stands whether you turned a profit, made a loss, or stayed dormant for the year.
All incorporated companies
Every company incorporated in Singapore, private or public, and Singapore branches of foreign companies must file a corporate income tax return each year.
Loss-making or dormant
A return is still required even if the company had no income, reported a loss, or was dormant during the financial year, unless IRAS has waived the requirement.
Sole props & partnerships
Sole proprietorships and partnerships aren't taxed as companies as their profits are reported under the owners' personal income tax instead.
Missing 30 November is an Offence!
Late or non-filing under the Income Tax Act draws penalties that escalate. A late-filing offence starts at S$200 and rises to S$1,000 for repeat misses, climbing further the longer it stands.
Two filings, one tax year
Corporate tax in Singapore is a two-step submission. First the ECI an early estimate within three months of your financial year-end. Then the actual return, Form C-S / C, by 30 November. We track both, plus your ACRA filings, and remind you well ahead.
