Employers of Singapore organizations must provide IR8A, Appendix 8A, and Appendix 8B forms to their employees at year end.
Role feature access: Year End > Singapore Year End > IRAS AIS e-Submission
The process of creating these tax forms in the Singapore Year End screen is as follows:
- Generate the forms with the latest payroll data and information. You can view the generated forms in the slide-out panel in the Singapore Year End screen.
- Audit the information in the forms. You can use the Singapore Year End Audit Report, or run the Singapore Year End Report to preview the PDF versions of the forms.
- Publish the forms to make them available to your employees in Earnings.
Generate the IR8A, Appendix 8A, or Appendix 8B Forms
Dayforce pulls the latest payroll data and information when you generate the forms in the Singapore Year End screen.
Before You Begin:
- Enter the employer and employee information required in the IR8 forms in Dayforce. See Enter the Employees' Tax Details for Singapore Year End.
- To generate the Appendix 8A and Appendix 8B forms, import the relevant employee information as XML files into Dayforce. See Import Singapore Employee Information to Generate Appendix 8A and 8B Forms.
- Go to Year End > Singapore Year End.
- In the IRAS AIS e-Submission tab, check the year. If you're working on a previous year end, select that year in Year.
- Select one or more legal entities.
- Click Process Job and then IRAS Data Generation.
- Select the specific employees whose forms you’re generating, or select All Employees.
- In Submission Type, select the kind of form submission you are making.

You need to publish these forms to make them available to employees. These forms are also ready for IRAS submission. See Submit Singapore Year-End Files to IRAS.
