What is the poll tax in Singapore?

1. The poll tax is simply that the company requires foreign employees to pay the money of the human resources department. Generally, WP is more expensive and SP is cheaper.

2. If you work in China, as long as you are not a Singaporean citizen or a public relations company, you need to pay poll tax, but these expenses are paid by the company and have nothing to do with individuals.

3. There is no poll tax exam, only a part of people who apply for SP will be randomly selected to take the basic English exam (this regulation was just introduced this year).

4. If you have Singapore nationality or PR (Permanent Residence Permit), the company does not have to pay poll tax, and the individual has to pay provident fund (20% of salary), which is similar to the domestic 3 gold and 4 gold. Foreign workers are the poll tax paid by the company, and individuals do not need to pay it.

Generally speaking, if you are working in China now, you can earn as much as the company contract gives you, and personal tax should not be deducted from your salary. If you are taking PR or Singapore citizenship now, you must deduct 20% from your salary as your provident fund.
