我最近才辞职,今天去cancel合同,结果老板突然说我这个6月份的薪水,要扣除个人所得税把剩余的给我.
而且,由于我是S Pass,工作时间才5个多月,没到6个月,所以按照MOM的规定,我需要交所有薪水的15%当作个人所得税.

请问各位,公司这样做是不是一点错误都没有?因为要交的比例实在太高了.

希望有经验的了解情况的大侠能给我解释一下好吗?非常感谢.

1） 公司那样做，公司会少交税。所以，公司在你离开的时候，一般都会要求帮你交税。

2） 但是你说的比例很高，可以到：iras，还是iars上查阅。

不知道，税和准证之间有什么联系。

EP的只有4%左右。PR的是不是低一些？从来没关心过这个。

如果你在新加坡没有呆够一定的时间, 税是按15%算的. 但是如果你继续留在这儿, 期限满了, 你过去多交的税是会退给你的.

我在这家公司工作了5个多月,但是在新家坡待了1年半了,请问在这样的情况下

我需要交多少税呢?而且不是可以自己报税的吗?为什么公司要这么积极的扣住我的钱帮我报呢?

还有,你说的以后待够需要的时间,还会退?能不能再具体一点啊?

谢谢

Q5: Does my employer need to inform IRAS if I cease employment with the company?

Yes, your employer needs to seek tax clearance by:
Informing IRAS at least one month before you cease employment or leave Singapore; and
Withholding any monies due to you until tax clearance is given or 30 days after we have received your employer's notification, whichever is earlier.

However if you are a Singapore Permanent Resident and you are merely changing jobs in Singapore, your employer does not have to seek tax clearance unless you are leaving Singapore permanently.

Q2: 关于退税的问题，我也不知道具体操作是怎样的。最好还是问IRAS. 电话或是email都会有回复的。

u have stayed in singapore for more than 183 days last calendar year and ask them to reply your email to acknowledge your residential status.

forward the email from iras to your company admin. if your income is less than 20000 for the 5 months, you will not need to pay any tax.

并非公司太积极，按规定，对于非PR和非公民，一年内工作时间少于183天（跟你待多长时间没关系），公司有义务扣你最后一个月的薪水留作tax clearance，税率是15%，确实有点高。

如果实在不想交这笔钱，可以跟公司协商多干一个月。否则你只能先把税清掉，如果你还继续留在新加坡工作，以后可以试着要求退税，可是要税务局把吃进的钱吐出来相当困难，也许会拖很多年，我一个朋友就有类似的惨痛经历。最后提醒一下，不要为这一点点钱影响你下一步的抉择，非常不值得。

我去找公司了解情况的时候,公司也说建议我做到满183天为止.

但是我已经找到新的工作,而且原来的公司也很垃圾,所以我还是按照

公司的说法,交了15%的税.很心疼啊,不过至少以后知道有这个问题的存在了.

谢谢你的帮助.

2. Is Tax clearance needed for all non-citizen employees? Are there any exceptions?

YES, there are exceptions. Tax clearance is NOT required for:



a. Singapore Permanent Residents who are merely changing jobs in Singapore and are not leaving Singapore permanently.

You do not need to seek tax clearance for employees who are Singapore Permanent Residents who are merely changing jobs in Singapore and are not leaving Singapore permanently after they cease employment. The employer may obtain a Letter of Undertaking confirming his stay in Singapore for his record.

工作到第三年﹐再次報稅時要求稅務局退稅﹐他會給你抵消掉當年該負的稅.若有剩餘會寄支票給你.
