When do I need to register for GST in Singapore?
Last updated: 2026-08-02·Verified: 2026-08-02
📋 Direct Answer
Singapore GST registration is mandatory if your annual taxable turnover exceeds S$1 million. Non-resident sellers who make B2C supplies of low-value goods (under S$400) to Singapore consumers may need Overseas Vendor Registration (OVR) from 1 January 2023. OVR applies if your global turnover exceeds S$1 million and you make >S$100,000 of remote B2C sales to Singapore. Cost: S$200-500. Timeline: 2-4 weeks.
