For tax purposes, you will need to declare your income derived from platform work and any non-platform work in the year to the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS). You should declare each source of income separately when filing your tax return to IRAS. Each trade should be reported under its own distinct nature of business category.

 

For example, if you earned income as a freelance tutor and a private hire car driver, you should declare these sources of income separately, under “Tutor/Lecturer” and “Taxi/Private Hire Car Driver” respectively. This will allow the consolidated statement/Form B from IRAS to display your income from self-employment and platform work as separate items, to facilitate the computation of the mandatory MediSave contributions for your income as a freelance tutor. You may refer to IRAS’ website for more information on reporting your income.

 

Refer to IRAS’ step-by-step guide to declare your income(s).
