IRAS

As part of IRAS’ ongoing efforts to make tax processes more seamless and efficient, we are enhancing the way companies interact with us.

The ‘Revise/Object to Assessment’ digital service allows companies to conveniently submit all necessary information at once, enabling faster finalisation of tax matters.

From 1 July 2027, all companies will be required to use IRAS’‘Revise/Object to Assessment’ digital service for these submissions. This proposed change will undergo public consultation as part of the Finance (Income Taxes) Bill 2026. In the meantime, companies and tax agents are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the digital service.

We have received reports on phishing emails with the subject headings “Official Notice of Tax Demand & Penalty” and “Tax Penalty – Under-declaration of Income”, sent by scammers impersonating IRAS officers. The phishing emails falsely claim that you have under-declared your income and contain suspicious links that may lead to a phishing website or download malware on your device.
