To schedule a tax payment on CardUp:
-
Sign up for a free CardUp account, or log in here if you are an existing user.
-
Set up your one-time or monthly tax payment. Ensure that you have set up an existing GIRO instalment plan with IRAS and do not cancel it even after setting up your payments on CardUp. A GIRO is required by IRAS in order to be allowed to pay monthly.
-
Ensure that your tax payment amount scheduled on CardUp matches the tax payable in your latest Statement of Account/monthly payment plan, otherwise your payment will be rejected.
-
Should you have differing amounts for certain months, you may edit the amount after setting up your payment. Refer to this guide.
-
-
Your payment reference will be pre-filled with the NRIC number linked to your CardUp account and will not be editable. Therefore, you will not be allowed to make tax payments on behalf of someone else.
-
As part of the supporting documents, please provide the latest copy of your Statement of Account or monthly payment plan that shows your (1) Name (2) NRIC/FIN (3) Tax payable.
-
CardUp will transfer the funds directly to IRAS on your behalf. After each payment has been completed, please allow 3-5 business days for it to be reflected in your myTax Portal account. The payment via CardUp will be shown as "E-payment" on your myTax portal account.
As a reminder for those who are on GIRO, please set the due date for your tax payments to be 12th monthly. E.g 12th July for August's due. This is to allow IRAS sufficient time to process each payment and prevent any potential reconciliation issues.
CardUp is not affiliated with IRAS and only acts as a payment service provider for your tax payments.
----
Please note that for larger payment amounts, the CardUp team will get in touch with you after your payment has been scheduled, as we would require additional documents for verification.
