Renting Out Property: Notification, Occupancy Rates and Income Tax

Letting can affect both property tax and rental-income tax.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Notify and stamp the lease

Letting and increased rental charges generally must be reported within 15 days. Timely electronic stamping can satisfy the notification route stated by IRAS; if stamping occurs later, a separate property-tax update is needed. Document stamping deadlines are distinct: generally 14 days after Singapore execution or 30 days after overseas execution is received in Singapore.

Whole letting versus room rental

Whole-home letting withdraws owner-occupier rates from the letting date. Partial letting while the owner continues living there can retain them. After a lease ends and the owner moves back, apply again; the concession does not automatically return. Rental earnings separately require an income-tax review with supporting rent and expense records.
