Entering Singapore Tax Code

Enter the appropriate Singapore tax code in the SG PEPPOL Tax Code field on the tax code record being referenced by your invoice or credit memo records. This links your NetSuite tax codes with Singapore tax codes; otherwise, you’ll get an error in processing the e-documents of invoices and credit memos.

To enter the tax code in the SG PEPPOL Tax Code field:

  1. Go to Setup > Accounting > Taxes > Tax Codes.

  2. From the list, click Edit next to the tax code record you use for your business in Singapore.

  3. In the SG PEPPOL Tax Code field, select the appropriate Singapore tax code.

    For more information, see Singapore Tax Codes.

  4. Click Save.
