Singapore Corporate Access (or Corppass) is the sole authorisation system for entities to manage digital service access of employees or third parties (e.g. tax agents) who need to perform corporate transactions with government agencies online. To access IRAS' digital services in an entity's myTax Portal account, employees or third parties (e.g. tax agents) must first be authorised via Corppass.

An entity which has authorised its employees or third parties (e.g. tax agents) to access its myTax Portal account via Corppass will be deemed to have authorised its employees or third parties (e.g. tax agents) to:

  • Handle its Corporate Income Tax matters;
  • Correspond with IRAS on its Corporate Income Tax matters through any mode of communication including telephone calls, myTax Mails, emails, hardcopy letters and in-person meetings.
