Let’s hope you have a good P&O department that looks at these things but you may want or need to check some things yourself. How much personal income tax you, or your company on your behalf, has to pay depends on your salary naturally but the Singapore tax form is not too complicated, you can calculate it pretty accurately by checking the IRAS website. Note; Year of assessment 2004 means that the assessment is made in 2004 over the year before i.e. 2003, so it is the 2003 tax.
Whether you will also have to pay tax ‘at home’ will depend on whether or not a tax-treaty exists between the countries and what the content of that is. If it’s your job or you are really interested you can check-out the treaties yourself from the government website.
