SingaporeCustoms — Frequently Asked Questions
Does Singapore charge import duties?
Singapore charges import duty (customs duty) on only four categories: intoxicating liquors, tobacco products, motor vehicles, and petroleum and biodiesel blends. All other goods enter Singapore at 0% customs duty. GST of 9% applies to most imported goods regardless of customs duty treatment.
What is the ASEAN Harmonised Tariff Nomenclature?
The AHTN is a common 8-digit tariff nomenclature used across ASEAN member states, based on the WCO's 6-digit HS code. It was introduced to facilitate intra-ASEAN trade by standardizing product classification. The first 6 digits are identical to the international HS code shown in this tool.
Is Singapore a good transshipment point for goods going to India?
Yes. Singapore is one of the world's busiest transshipment hubs and a major logistics gateway for goods moving between India, Southeast Asia, and the rest of the world. Singapore and India have a Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (CECA) providing preferential tariff rates on qualifying goods.
