Chargeable income is not your salary
Chargeable income is what remains after reliefs. Most employees can deduct CPF relief on their own contributions and earned income relief. Parents, NSmen, caregivers and those topping up CPF or contributing to SRS can claim more.

Ways to reduce the bill
- Chargeable income is income after reliefs, so claim every relief you qualify for before working out the tax.
- Restaurant '++' prices add a 10% service charge first, then 9% GST on the total.
- Personal income tax relief is capped at S$80,000 a year in total.
- SRS and CPF top-up relief save more tax the higher your marginal rate is.
Background
Singapore taxes individuals on income earned in Singapore, with progressive rates for residents that start at 0% on the first S$20,000 of chargeable income and rise to 24% on income above S$1 million. Tax is assessed a year in arrears: income earned in 2025 is assessed in Year of Assessment 2026.
Reliefs lower chargeable income before rates apply. Common ones include earned income relief, CPF relief for employee contributions, parent and handicapped parent relief, working mother's child relief, NSman relief, course fees relief, and relief for SRS contributions and CPF cash top-ups. Total personal reliefs are capped at S$80,000 a year.
You are generally a tax resident if you are a citizen or PR who normally lives here, or a foreigner who has stayed or worked in Singapore for at least 183 days in the calendar year. Non-residents do not get personal reliefs and are taxed differently, which is why residency status matters so much for expatriates.
