Understanding Property Tax

Property tax is a tax on ownership of property. It is an annual tax which is payable regardless whether you rent it out, live in it, or leave it vacant.

Our Taxes. Our Nation.
Property tax payments fund public services like education, healthcare, and parks for everyone to enjoy.

Annual Value (AV)
AV is based on estimated market rentals of properties that are similar to yours. You can compare it with rentals on the HDB and URA websites. IRAS analyses rents of similar properties that have been rented out and adjusts for differences in location, size, condition, and other physical attributes.

AV may be higher or lower than your actual rent as the AV reflects market rent at the time when IRAS reviews it, while your actual rent may have been contracted at an earlier date.

Finding Annual Value Information

If you own the property: You can check the current AV by using the View Property Summary digital service for free. All AVs shown are as at current date. If there is any change to the AV stated in your 2027 Property Tax bill, it will only be reflected on the digital service from the effective date of change.

If you do not own the property: You can use the Check Annual Value of Property digital service to search the AV of a property for $2.50 per search. This digital service maintains AV information for the current year and up to 5 back years. This digital service only provides information on AV and other information on the property is not made available. 

Property Tax Rates

Property tax rates on owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied residential properties are applied on a progressive scale. All other properties are taxed at 10% of the Annual Value

How property tax is calculated: Property Tax = Annual Value x Tax Rates

Property tax rates on owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied residential properties are applied on a progressive scale. All other properties are taxed at 10% of the Annual Value.

Owner-occupier tax rates

Owner-occupier tax rates apply to only 1 property you own and live in. The other residential properties that you own will be taxed at the non-owner-occupier rates, even if you live in them as second homes.

For married couples: You can only apply for the owner-occupier tax rates to 1 home, whether owned jointly or separately.

Applying for owner-occupier tax rates

If you are residing in your property but it is currently taxed at "non-owner-occupier residential tax rates", you can apply for the owner-occupier tax rates via our "Apply/ Withdraw Owner-Occupier Tax Rates" digital service. You can view the status of your application thereafter in the same digital service.
