Authorisation of Tax Agents via EASY

Your company is required to authorise its tax agents via the e-Services Authorisation System (EASY)

You may log in to EASY to perform a one-time authorisation with the following: 
• your tax reference number (eg. NRIC, FIN, etc.);
• your SingPass or IRAS PIN;
• your company’s Access Code;
• your company’s tax reference number; and
• the tax reference number (eg. UEN-LOCAL CO, UEN-BUSINESS, etc.) of the tax agent firm. 

If you have previously authorised another tax agent to act on your company's behalf via EASY, you will need to delete that authorisation first, before authorising your new tax agent.

Please view the demonstration slides on how to authorise and delete a tax agent via EASY which may be useful. If the company does not have an Access Code, the company may request an Access Code by completing this form.
