Yearly data from 1972 to 2024, from the World Bank.
Singapore's other taxes (current LCU) was 21.76 billion in 2024, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is up 64.57% from 13.22 billion in 2014 (5.11% a year on average, compounded).
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 21.76 billion | 2024 |
| Five years earlier | 15.64 billion | 2019 |
| Ten years earlier | 13.22 billion | 2014 |
| Highest | 21.76 billion | 2024 |
| Lowest | 273 million | 1972 |
| Average since 2015 | 16.05 billion | 2015–2024 |
| First recorded | 273 million | 1972 |
Over five years it is up 39.08% from 15.64 billion in 2019 (6.82% a year on average, compounded). Since 1972 it is up 7,870% from 273 million in 1972 (8.78% a year on average, compounded).
In 2024, Singapore's other taxes (current LCU) rose 10.7% on 2023 (from 19.66 billion to 21.76 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +7.3% and a typical year strayed about 19.7% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 57.2% in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was 32.1% in 2020. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 792.59 million a year. A straight line explains 55% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2024, Singapore had the 29th highest value of the 82 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.
Other taxes include employer payroll or labor taxes, taxes on property, and taxes not allocable to other categories, such as penalties for late payment or nonpayment of taxes. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
Limitations: For most countries central government finance data have been consolidated into one account, but for others only budgetary central government accounts are available. Countries reporting budgetary data are noted in the country metadata. Because budgetary accounts may not include all central government units (such as social security funds), they usually provide an incomplete picture. In federal states the central government accounts provide an incomplete view of total public finance. Data on government revenue and expense are collected by the IMF through questionnaires to member countries and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
