IRAS set to launch new e-Stamping website

Starting July 27, 2010 businesses and individuals in Singapore can e-Stamp their documents and pay stamp duty at IRAS’ new e-Stamping website.
With the new e-Stamping website, any individual can stamp his document electronically, from his home or office without the hassle of physically moving his legal/commercial documents to the stamp duty counters.

The new e-Stamping website is free of charge for anyone who wishes to stamp his document and pay stamp duty via the Internet.  All that one has to do is key in the details of the document on which stamp duty is payable and the system will automatically compute the amount of stamp duty he needs to pay. Once payment is made, he can print the “Certificate of Stamp Duty” immediately. The new e-Stamping website also allows registered users to view their past e-Stamping transactions or apply for stamp duty refund.

Under the Stamp Duties Act, documents relating to property and shares must be stamped and these include lease, sale and purchase, gift or mortgage of property. Currently, individuals have to go to the stamp duty counter at IRAS’ Taxpayer Service  Centre or Chinatown service bureau (operated by CrimsonLogic Pte Ltd) to have their documents stamped manually. The existing e-Stamping website is only available to law firms, secretariat firms and estate agencies and they have to pay a monthly subscription fee and transaction fee for every document stamped.

With the introduction of the new e-Stamping website on Tuesday, the existing e-Stamping website will shut down on 23 July 2010 (Friday).   In view of the switch over, the due date for all documents that must be stamped by 23, 24, 25 or 26 July 2010 will be extended to 2 August 2010.

    Being a Health and Fitness Professional, it is my job to understand terms and definitions which are commonplace to this industry, as well to keep abreast of evolving trends. Through my experience, I have found that a number of terms deserve a little more clarification than that which they are granted. diabetic dominos

Singapore property developers cautious about market outlook

SINGAPORE : Property developers seem pessimistic about the outlook for Singapore's real estate market in 2012, with some analysts foreseeing a five to ten percent drop in property prices this year. But market watchers also say the strong interest in recent property launches could defy these forecasts and even lead to more cooling measures. Celebrations continue but property developers are still in the dark about the outlook for Singapore's property market in 2012. Mr Wong Heang Fine, President, Real Estate Developer's Association of Singapore, said: "We are cautious. On the market going forward, it all depends on how the global economy goes in the next eleven months. So it's really anybody's guess." URA data shows the rate of price increase for private residential properties moderating for the ninth consecutive quarter with rentals also tapering off.  More details at  http://www.channelnewsasia.com Source : MediaCorp Pte Ltd by Yvon

HDB upgraders set pace in private property market

SINGAPORE: The private residential market saw a rebound in September. Figures released by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) on Monday showed 2,064 units, including executive condominiums (ECs), were transacted. This is the highest number of monthly transactions this year and a significant 26 per cent increase from August's 1,638 units. Treasure Trove, a development in Punggol, accounted for about 40 per cent of the transactions with more than 680 units sold. PropNex Realty said the homebuyers are mainly HDB upgraders, attracted to the pricing and the proximity of the development to the Punggol MRT. It said the revision of income ceiling had prompted many to purchase ECs.   More details at  http://www.channelnewsasia.com Source : MediaCorp Pte Ltd
