Why Rambutan Legal

A Methodical Approach to Tax

Our work is shaped by precision, not speed. Each matter is reviewed carefully, and recommendations are communicated clearly.

Legislative Depth

Advisory grounded in a thorough reading of the Income Tax Act, GST Act, and applicable IRAS guidance — not generalisations.

Written Deliverables

Every engagement concludes with a structured written advisory — a clear record of analysis, findings, and recommended actions.

Direct Adviser Access

Clients work directly with their assigned adviser — not through intermediaries or junior staff — ensuring quality and continuity.

Compliance-First Mindset

All recommendations align with IRAS guidelines and the relevant statutory framework, with an emphasis on defensible, transparent positions.

Cross-Border Awareness

We advise on Singapore's treaty network, withholding tax obligations, and overseas-sourced income — relevant for expatriates and multinational entities alike.

Plain-Language Communication

Complex tax matters are explained in accessible terms — without unnecessary jargon — so clients can make well-informed decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

Who is the personal income tax planning service suited for?

The service is designed for salaried employees, self-employed individuals, business owners, and expatriates living or working in Singapore. It is particularly useful for those who have recently changed their tax residency status, received income from multiple sources, or are unsure which reliefs and deductions apply to their assessment.

What does the corporate tax structuring engagement involve?

The engagement covers a review of your current business structure, identification of applicable exemptions such as the partial tax exemption scheme, and analysis of intercompany transaction arrangements. We look at how group relief provisions and treaty protections may apply, and provide written recommendations for implementation.

When should a business consider GST registration advisory?

Businesses approaching the S$1 million annual taxable turnover threshold should seek advisory before they are required to register. Voluntary registration may also be appropriate for certain businesses with significant input costs. We also assist established entities that wish to strengthen their GST compliance or prepare for an IRAS audit.

How are advisory sessions conducted?

Sessions may be conducted in person at our office at One George Street, or via video call, depending on your preference. After the session, a written summary or advisory report is prepared and shared with the client within the agreed timeframe.

Is ongoing retainer-based advisory available?

For businesses requiring ongoing GST or tax support — particularly those navigating compliance changes — we are able to discuss a continuing advisory arrangement suited to your volume and complexity. Please contact us to discuss what would be appropriate for your situation.

What information should I prepare before the consultation?

For personal tax matters, it helps to have recent Notice of Assessment documents, details of employment arrangements, and any overseas income information. For corporate engagements, financial statements and the current corporate structure overview are useful starting points. We will advise on the specific documents needed once you make contact.
