Tax Specialist Schemes

Accredited Tax Specialists (ATS) Scheme

Under this scheme, you can grow and attain accreditation as a Tax Specialist in 1 of the major tax types - Income Tax, Goods & Services Tax and Property Tax. This is part of the development and recognition of tax officers who have attained a high level of technical competency. ATSes are expected to continuously upgrade, share their technical knowledge and contribute to the development of other tax officers in IRAS.

Master Tax Specialists (ATS) Scheme

After deepening their knowledge in specific areas of taxation, Accredited Tax Specialists can become a MTS.

If you are a MTS, you are expected to be a role-model and should take the lead to identify new issues, resolve complex problems, self-learn and impart knowledge to others. MTSes will also receive structured learning through training programmes, experiential training through attachments to relevant organisations and conduct self-learning through research.
