Dear proud holders of Sg account(s), are we now obliged to declare this on efiling?

I have been transferring money from CIMB MY to CIMB SG weekly.

Will it be a problem with the authority? Is there any limit?

thanks for sharing...5k/weekly...hopefully it is not "long" duration....
yes, I think it will trigger some sort of query in the long terms...1 mth 20k, 10 months 200k, etc etc...
but if into personal a/c, the income is taxed in M'sia and the income from the S'pore are reported,...I think not much of a problem to be queried...

I don't think there is a limit for receiving SGD. So the limiting factor is converting MYR and sending SGD via Instarem.
Daily limit is RM30,000 for individual and RM200,000 for business. More info here.
When in doubt, call them up.
