Payroll Outsourcing Services for Singapore Companies
Timely payment of salary under the Employment Act
Under the Employment Act, companies must pay their employees correct salaries within 7 days after the end of the salary period. Failure to pay salaries in accordance with provisions of the Act is an offence.
Hence, one of the most important tasks for a business is the timely preparation of payroll and payment of salary. However, this process can be further complicated with additional components such as benefits, allowances, deductions, government remittances, etc. It is of no surprise that consequently many SMEs choose to rely on payroll outsourcing to accounting firms in Singapore.
We have been providing our Payroll Management Services to hundreds of clients across a wide range of industries, since 1998. Our payroll specialists in Singapore are well-trained and equipped to process even the most complex payroll account with our advanced payroll software. Our service ensures that government remittances such as CPF are paid on time, tax filing requirements are adhered to, and the payroll information is kept confidential offsite.

Frequently Asked Questions
- There are two statutory requirements (or payroll taxes) for employers in Singapore as regards to their contribution per employee:
- Central Provident Fund (CPF) contributions, which are payable only to Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents.
- Skills Development Levy (SDL), which is payable for all employees, and is used to support workforce upgrading programmes, as well as provides training grants to employers.
- Skills Development Levy (SDL) contribution is payable by employers for all employees up to the first $4,500 of gross monthly remuneration at the rate of 0.25% or $2, whichever is higher. This is payable for all employees and is used to support workforce upgrading programmes, as well as provides training grants to employers.
- Singapore has the progressive resident rates for personal taxation ranging from zero to 22 percent with the topmost rates kicking in at S$320,000 annual income.
- Yes, you can. The GST that a company incurs on business purchases and expenses (including import of goods) is known as input tax. If your business satisfies the conditions for claiming input tax, you can claim the input tax on your business purchases and expenses. This input tax credit mechanism ensures that only the value added is taxed at each stage of a supply chain. While the output tax is what you charge as GST from your customers for your services or supplies. The difference between the output and input tax is the net GST payable to IRAS or refunded by IRAS.
