yes.......the other criteria would be your income in that particular year doesnt hit around SG20k-21k, then you're not required to pay tax....to be precise its not working for more than a year.....its stayed/worked in Singapore for 183 days in a 365 days of a calendar year....else its a flat 15% tax rate

oic..ok..so looks like that 20% tax for foreigner is all BS.. tongue.gif

so if i work there for 1 year (more than 183 days la), then the rate would be according to the table la?..the rate on tat table doesn't look all that scary.. smile.gif

and thanks a lot tailtwist for that table!! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
