For
resident corporations Singapore is not
particularly tax-friendly- the corporation
tax rate is 18%, and it is charged on
all income derived from sources in Singapore,
together with income from sources outside
Singapore if received in Singapore.
In
place of VAT and import duty Singapore
levies a 7% Goods & Services Tax from
which exporting businesses are exempted.
There are however a number of beneficial
tax regimes available to the international
investor, described on other pages.
Singapore
is setting out to be a major 'conduit'

Agreement] the two countries signed
in 2005.
