Two questions. The fixed-establishment rule is where most foreign businesses get it wrong.
Is your business established in Singapore (registered office, branch or fixed establishment)?
Do you issue domestic B2B invoices in Singapore?
Singapore: likely outside the issuing mandate — watch e-reporting / cross-border
VAT registration or trading alone, without a fixed establishment, usually keeps you outside Singapore's issuing obligation — but you may still face e-reporting or need to receive structured e-invoices. Confirm your establishment status.
Not in scope for Singapore
With no establishment and no registration or trade in Singapore, the mandate doesn't apply to you today. Revisit this if you open a branch, warehouse or start supplying into Singapore.
In scope — issue structured e-invoices in Singapore
If you registered for GST voluntarily on or after 1 November 2025 you must already transmit invoice data to IRAS via an InvoiceNow-Ready Solution. Existing GST-registered businesses come in between 1 April 2028 and 1 April 2031 according to 2025 total supplies.
In scope to receive in Singapore
There is no receive-side obligation; the duty is to transmit your sales and purchase invoice data to IRAS via an InvoiceNow-Ready Solution.

Scope
Mandatory for companies registering voluntarily within 6 months of incorporation (from 1 Nov 2025) and all new voluntary registrants (from 1 Apr 2026). From 1 Apr 2028 it covers new compulsory registrants and existing businesses with 2025 total supplies up to S$200,000, then up to S$1m (2029), up to S$4m (2030) and all remaining (2031). Covers all transactions reported in the GST return (POS/retail may be aggregated); excludes OVR-registered overseas vendors and s.33(1)-agent businesses. Overseas companies with a Singapore establishment are in scope.
No dedicated InvoiceNow penalty. IRAS may refuse or revoke the GST registration of voluntary registrants that do not comply; general GST penalties otherwise apply. IRAS has said enforcement will be calibrated in the initial phases.
