- Updated Guidance on GST Error Corrections: The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) has released guidance for businesses on correcting errors in GST returns using the GST F7 form. This includes eligibility criteria for administrative concessions for minor errors, a calculator for assessing qualification, and procedures for filing corrections via the myTax Portal, including timelines and payment instructions.
- Filing Deadlines and Extensions: IRAS has provided updated information on the due dates for GST returns, typically due at the end of the month following each accounting period. The guidance specifies the GIRO deduction schedule for automated payments, outlines penalties for late submissions, and describes limited circumstances under which extensions may be requested, while stressing that most operational delays are not considered valid reasons for extension.
- Refund Claims and Penalties: The updated guidance details the process for claiming refunds for overpaid GST, required documentation, and the penalties associated with incorrect filings. It highlights the availability of reduced penalties through IRAS’s Voluntary Disclosure Program and explains the electronic refund process via GIRO or PayNow, including timelines based on accounting cycles.
