Cost Allocation Agreements are essential for multinational companies operating in Singapore to properly document and manage the sharing of costs between related entities. These agreements are particularly important given Singapore's strict transfer pricing regulations and documentation requirements. A Cost Allocation Agreement helps demonstrate compliance with the arm's length principle, provides clarity on cost sharing arrangements, and supports tax positions taken by the group. It typically includes detailed methodologies for cost identification, allocation bases, and true-up mechanisms, while ensuring alignment with IRAS guidelines and international transfer pricing principles.
