Strong trade and investment ties make Singapore one of the most competitive Asian countries and one of the world\u2019s easiest places to do business.<\/p>\n<p> By situating your international headquarters in Singapore, your company will benefit from the following advantages:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"space-list\">\n<li><strong>Singapore has a low corporate tax<\/strong> rate compared to other leading economies in the world. A company is taxed at a flat rate on its chargeable income and with effect from the year 2009 (YA 2010) onwards, <strong>the corporate tax has been reduced to 17%<\/strong>. Also, capital gains are not taxable in Singapore;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Singapore-based startups are eligible for the tax exemption scheme<\/strong> receiving a 75% exemption on the initial $100,000 of taxable income for the first three years, followed by a 50% reduction in the current corporate tax rate for the subsequent $100,000 of taxable income.

This creates a restricted labor pool in the hospitality, F&#038;B, tourism, and retail sectors. <\/p>\n<p>The only way to fill this void is to accept an influx of immigrants willing to work in such positions. Simple supply and demand and thus result in higher foreign worker levies and quotas, thereby increasing the cost of labor for small businesses. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to high labor costs as highlighted above, land costs in Singapore are high due to very limited country size and strategic port location. It is expensive to buy as well as rent land space in Singapore. <\/p>\n<p>Renting an office, building a semiconductor factory, or even renting a retail shop space can be costly as compared to neighboring Asian countries.<\/p>\n<p>Singapore also does not have natural resources and depends intensively on the importing of raw materials and ready-made products from other countries.
