CorpPass for Sole Proprietors, GST-Registered, and Group/Divisional Registrants

Sole proprietors, group registered companies, and companies with IRAS divisional registration whose businesses are GST (Goods and Services Tax)-registered are required to create a separate GST CorpPass Admin Account registered under their respective GST registration numbers.

The GST CorpPass Admin manages GST CorpPass User accounts by giving them rights to access GST e-services and submit GST returns to IRAS.

One major difference between the CorpPass Admin and the GST CorpPass Admin is that the latter has been configured for use with other government digital services.

If you are required to own a GST CorpPass, follow these steps to optimize an account for use:

Step 1: Register GST CorpPass Admin account
	The IRAS has forms for either GST-registered sole-proprietors, GST Group or Divisional Registrants. These are for appointing a new GST CorpPass admin or to make changes with your pre-existing GST CorpPass Admin account. Once you fill up the forms, convert them into a PDF file and send them attached to an email via their myTax Portal. The forms must be sent five (5) days in advance. By August 2018, all business owners under this category will receive an email regarding the registration of their GST CorpPass Admin accounts.
Step 2: Create GST CorpPass User account
	If you are the GST CorpPass Admin who files the GST returns to IRAS, you may proceed to the next step. For GST CorpPass Admins, log in to CorpPass to create a GST CorpPass User Account for the person assigned to file for the GST returns on behalf of their business. GST CorpPass User Accounts will contain your EASY records as a reference list for account creation. Migrations for EASY records began last 24 July 2018 just in case you ponder on what happens to your EASY account. Changes made to your EASY records after the said date will not reflect towards your CorpPass account. A GST CorpPass User will receive an email notification from CorpPass containing a prompt to reset the password and account activation.
Step 3: Assign GST e-Services
	Starting 15 August 2018, all GST e-services will be listed in CorpPass for use by companies under this classification. GST CorpPass Admins must assign various GST e-services in use to the GST CorpPass User Account. However, if you are designated to file the GST returns on behalf of your company, you can assign select GST e-services to your own account.
