Example: S$5,000 net + 9% GST = S$5,450 gross · S$450 GST

Formula

Add GST: Gross = Net × 1.09 | Remove GST: Net = Gross ÷ 1.09

Singapore GST uses the same mechanics as VAT. At 9%: multiply the net price by 1.09 to get the GST-inclusive price. To extract the net from a GST-inclusive amount, divide by 1.09. The GST component is the difference between gross and net.

Worked Example

Scenario 1 — B2B invoice:

A Singapore-registered consultancy invoices a local client SGD 8,000 for project management services. GST at 9% applies.

GST = SGD 8,000 × 9% = SGD 720.00

Invoice total = SGD 8,000 + SGD 720 = SGD 8,720.00

Scenario 2 — Extracting GST from a receipt:

A supplier invoice shows SGD 1,635 GST-inclusive. What is the GST portion?

Net = SGD 1,635 ÷ 1.09 = SGD 1,500.00

GST = SGD 1,635 − SGD 1,500 = SGD 135.00

If the client is an overseas business and the services qualify as international services under the GST Act, zero-rating at 0% may apply — confirm with IRAS guidelines before invoicing.

Common Mistakes

  • Using the old 8% rate. Singapore raised GST from 8% to 9% on 1 January 2024. Any calculation using 8% will understate GST obligations for invoices issued from that date onwards.
  • Assuming all supplies are standard-rated. Exports of goods and international services are zero-rated at 0%. Supplies such as financial services and residential property are exempt. Always confirm the GST treatment before invoicing.
  • Overlooking the GST registration threshold. Businesses must register for GST once their taxable turnover exceeds SGD 1 million per year. Charging GST without being registered — or failing to register when required — both carry penalties.
