When you buy an item from overseas, it's important to be aware that it may incur Goods and Services Tax (GST) and duty as per Singapore customs regulations. For packages sent via SingPost, you can conveniently pay any applicable GST and/or duty using the SingPost app, at a POPDrop kiosk, or at any post office counter. Once you’ve settled these payments, your package will be delivered to you. This process ensures that receiving your international purchases is simple and hassle-free.
