Singapore’s 2026 budget introduces a requirement for all GST‑registered businesses to submit digital invoices via the InvoiceNow e‑invoicing network by April 2031. The government will roll out free InvoiceNow‑Ready software and cash grants up to S$5,000 to support the transition, prioritising smaller firms. Since Nov 1 2025, newly incorporated GST‑registered companies have already been required to transmit invoice data through InvoiceNow.
Singapore’s tax authority IRAS has announced that all GST‑registered businesses must transmit invoice data via the InvoiceNow e‑invoicing network, with phased implementation dates from 2025 to 2031. The requirement applies to voluntary and compulsory registrants based on incorporation date and annual supply thresholds, while overseas entities and reverse‑charge‑only businesses are exempt. Businesses can adopt InvoiceNow‑Ready solutions, free‑of‑charge packages, or IMDA‑accredited access points to comply.
