On 17 March 2026, tax investigators from IRAS conducted island-wide raids at over 20 business premises and residential locations, as part of investigations into several suspected Goods and Services Tax (GST) refund fraud cases.

The operation led to the arrest of one female suspect, aged 56, for one of the cases. Accounting records, electronic devices, and other evidence linked to the alleged offences were seized, including 179 luxury watches estimated to be worth more than $1 million.

In 2025, more than 1,300 businesses making GST refund claims were audited, resulting in a recovery of over $100 million in taxes and penalties.

💼 Businesses and individuals are encouraged to report any suspected tax malpractices or disclose any past tax mistakes. Refer to go.gov.sg/iras-voluntary-disclosure for more information on voluntary disclosure.
