As long as the Singaporean lives less than 183 days in Singapore, he is counted as a non-resident.\n\nFor a non-resident, as long as the income is not derived from Singapore sources, no tax is payable.  However, income tax returns still have to be filed by April 15th every year.

It depends on how much money the person makes. People have to pay taxes on any assets or extra money they make. Some people who make a certain amount of money (under the max you can make) don't have to pay extra money and they just receive it.

It depends where you come from and where you want to live. Every country makes its own laws about this.\n\n Mostly you can move to a different counrty by either having sufficient funds that you can show (in a bank account) to your designated country-which in turn reassures them that you are not moving there to live of their social welfare funding.\n\nOr you have to be employed by someone in that country who is then supposed to go through a bunch of paperwork in which they state that you are indeed their employee and the salary you are going to receive and how long your contract is for.

If you are a U.S. Citizen living outside of the US, you are required to pay taxes.  However, you are able to deduct one of the following: 1) $80,000 of foreign earned income or 2)foreign taxes paid.  If you earned less than $80,000 in a foreign country you will not owe any taxes, but you must file.

Anyone who works in the united states is required to pay income tax.\nPeople who do not have social security numbers obtain an ITIN individual tax identification number in order to file tax returns.\nFor example an illegal immigrant who makes up a social security number goes to work, the employer deducts all applicable taxes and at the end of the year provides worker with a W-2, the worker goes to a tax preparer and legally obtains an ITIN and legally files taxes, however they are not eligible for Medicare so the US gov't stays with that money.\nPart 2\nthere are tax laws for taking or bringing too much money, not income tax another tax.

I'm not a Singaporean but we do have something similar to CPF in Malaysia, it's called EPF. From my opinion on EPF, it's a good thing that the government made it a mandatory for people to contribute because not only that employees has a saving for the rainy days, but employers are also contributing. But the shitty thing is that even though it is our money, we are restricted to a certain degree of freedom in obtaining back the money and can only be obtained when we want to buy house, pay for our unsponsored children's tertiary education, etc. Usually people will grumble on how EPF is overcontrolling the money (hence the allegations that the people inside EPF is swindling the money). Overall, it is a good idea but I hope that the CPF body in Singapore won't take the advantage of poeple's money and give some degree of freedom for people to use their own money. Well, it's just my point of view.

The term "tax home" as it is used in the foreign earned income exclusion does no refer to ownership of a physical residence or office building, but to your ordinary place of work.  If you work in an office in a particular location, that is your tax home, regardless of who owns it.  If you travel on business but return regularly to a particular place, that should also be your tax home.  It is intended to be the same standard as is used for determining which business travel expenses are deductible as "away from home" expenses.

I believe the first USD80,000 is tax free but then you have to pay tax.  Unless your company pays for it!  Check with your tax adviser!

Yes if they have a physical presence locally.  They are also required to pay taxes and be licensed in the cities and states they operate in.

yes, often it gets taxed before it hits you...and then gets taxed again. NOKIA is probably a favorite example here in the US...widely held, widely known.\n\nYou will be offered the chance to claim the foreign tax paid as a deduction or as a credit. A credit will be worth more to your bottom line. There is a line item on your taxes that will ask SPECIFICALLY if you paid any foreign tax. THAT is where your entry goes. Good luck.

if you didn't do any work there (earn any income) and don't live there (residency) you shouldn't have to.  But it never hurts to consult a tax attorney or accountant.
