ASEANews HEADLINES: SINGAPORE – S’pore residents employed overseas but working here remotely must now pay tax

SINGAPORE – Singapore residents who are employed overseas but are working here remotely must now pay tax after a pandemic-related exemption ended on June 30.

The exemption for such employees came into force last April due to Covid-19 and allowed workers to re-locate temporarily to Singapore, perhaps for family reasons or peace of mind, but without being hit with additional tax.
