MOF seeks feedback on Goods and Services Tax Act amendments

The Ministry of Finance plans to amend the introduction of GST on imported low-value goods and non-digital services.

The Ministry of Finance has opened a public consultation on its four proposed amendments to the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Act.

Amongst the changes proposed on the draft GST (Amendment) Bill 2021 involve the introduction of GST on $400-and-below goods imported via air or post, and to business-to-consumer imported non-digital services.

The second proposed amendment has to do with GST for supplies of media sales.

The last two proposed amendments have to do with GST administration and the clarity of existing legislation.

The public can access the public consultation documents, including the draft GST (Amendment) Bill 2021, on the Ministry of Finance's website (www.mof.gov.sg) and the REACH consultation portal (www.reach.gov.sg).

Interested parties are requested to use the prescribed template to submit their comments on the draft GST (Amendment) Bill 2021.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
