The governments of Singapore and South Korea today signed an updated tax treaty, Singapore’s Ministry of Finance has announced.
The new treaty would replace a treaty that entered into force in 1979 treaty and a protocol that entered into force in 2013.
The new Singapore-Korea tax treaty would lower the withholding tax rate for royalties to 5 percent. It also expands the scope of capital gains tax exemption.
The agreement is not yet ratified and thus does not have the force of law.
