About tax exemption

Singapore is a good place for shopping, where most businesses and services are subject to a 3% consumption tax. In shops with tourist tax-free labels, if you buy more than S $3, you can apply for exemption from consumption tax. However, there must be certain conditions:

You must spend at least S $1 in other duty-free shops that you participate in individually, and spend a total of S $3 together with other receipts. When buying goods, show your passport and ask for a filled-in duty-free shopping check. When you leave Singapore, show all the duty-free shopping checks at the tax refund counter of the first or second terminal building of Changi International Airport and you can cash them.

Another way is to directly transfer the refund to a credit card account or replace it with a bank check, and the handling fee will be deducted from the consumption tax refund.
