How salaries are taxed in Singapore
Singapore taxes residents on a progressive scale from 0% to 24%, with rates that are strikingly low by Western standards: a S$100,000 salary pays roughly 7% effective income tax. Taxes are assessed on the previous year's income and paid after filing, not withheld monthly.
Citizens and permanent residents contribute 20% of salary to the Central Provident Fund (CPF), matched by 17% from employers, funding retirement, housing, and healthcare. Foreigners on Employment Passes don't contribute to CPF — which lifts their monthly take-home above locals at the same gross.
There is no capital gains tax and no tax on foreign-sourced income for individuals in most cases, making Singapore a wealth-friendly base for the region.
