Declarant tried to apply permit cancellation for an IG permit with GF and TX conditions but encountered rejection message, CANCELLATION IS NOT ALLOWED FOR PAID PERMIT. PLEASE APPLY FOR REFUND, what is the reason?

Question

Accepted Answer

For payment permits with the permit conditions "GF" (i.e. the GST payable was deducted directly from the taxable importer's bank account registered with Singapore Customs via Inter-Bank GIRO), the importer is to claim the GST as input tax from the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) during the company's accounting period.

However, if the claim for refund is due to the wrong importer’s name or UEN, the importer can apply for a GST refund from Singapore Customs.

Please visit Refund of Duties & GST for more information on the refund procedures.
