What Accounting Standards Must We Follow In Singapore?

All businesses incorporated in Singapore have to prepare financial statements that comply with the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (SFRS). For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are not publicly accountable, where the revenue and gross assets are no more than S$10 million and do not have more than 50 employees, they can provide a streamlined version of the required financial report, excluding topics such as earnings per share and interim financial reporting.

Is It Possible To Switch My Current Accounting Firm To CFOSG?

Absolutely! But first, do check the contractual terms with your existing accounting firm to see if you’re bound to a certain timeframe. Should you find your current accounting firm unreliable or simply seek to automate your accounting processes for quicker accessibility to financial records, let us help you.

What Do I Need To Do When My Company Becomes GST Registered?

GST refers to the goods and services tax that is added to each consumption, which currently stands at 7% per transaction in Singapore. Once your business exceeds the annual turnover of S$1 million, it is required to be GST-registered, and you will need to add the 7% GST to all your products and services transacted locally.

Subsequently, you will have to file for GST returns via IRAS and pay the tax due within one month from the end of each accounting period on a quarterly basis. In return, companies can also claim GST input from IRAS to offset the GST incurred for goods and services purchased from all local GST-registered suppliers.
