Yes and no.

Yes, if you derived any other income from Msia i.e. Msia business income, dividend income, rental income, interest income and etc.

No, for your employment income as it is deemed foreign source income. Even if you brought/remitted back to Msia, it would be exempt from tax under Para 28, Schedule 6 of ITA 1967.

Hope this clears your Q.

By right you have to declare all income received in Msia whether or not it is derived from Msia. But I have never bothered to declare as I don't have any income from Msia in the first place!

Remember that you have to declare your Singapore income to IRAS (Singapore tax authority) if you annual income is >S$20,000 (or S$22,000?...can't remember).

thanks for the prompt reply...for the singapore side, i will only need to declare to the IRAS and not paying taxes since i'm not a PR yet...or i still have to pay taxes no matter i'm PR or not?
