Advanced Ruling System (ARS):
Additionally, if your company wishes to get an advanced ruling from IRAS on treatment of your company tax in Singapore, in view of the residency status of your company (eg. if your operations are mostly based overseas), SBS can assist you in the application of such for a reasonable fee.
An advance ruling is a written interpretation of how a provision under the Income Tax (Amendment) Act applies to a specific taxpayer and a proposed arrangement. Such an advance ruling by the Comptroller under the ARS is legally binding; therefore the Comptroller has to apply the law in the manner set out in a ruling made under the ARS once it is issued. This is a very useful means of significantly minimizing any future disputes of corporate tax Singapore treatment, or financial shocks arising out of the ensuing compliance.
The process typically takes up to eight weeks, and where the application is more complex, the applicant will be advised accordingly.
