GST and sales tax software for Deskera

No. Deskera generates them. In Singapore it produces GST Form 5 in detailed and summary form plus the IRAS Audit File in the format IRAS prescribes, and its own guide ends at reviewing the GST report before you file. In Malaysia it produces the SST-02 return, in India GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B, and it also covers Philippine BIR forms, UAE VAT 201 and New Zealand GST101A. Submission and payment are yours in every one of them. Its US nexus article puts it plainly: you will need to file your taxes through the appropriate channels. Commenda files the return instead, across all 50 states and 70+ countries, on each jurisdiction's own frequency.

You tell it. Setup asks you to select the states you have nexus in, and Deskera documents that the tax amount reflects as zero if you disable nexus for a state. Its own article on nexus says you need to check each state's unique criteria to qualify, and that once you have confirmed it you should register the permit, charge tax and file. Registration is the input, not the output. Commenda measures your Deskera transactions against each state's own rule, whether or not anyone ticked the box, and notifies you at 80% of a threshold.

Yes. Commenda registers you for GST in India and files GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B from the same data Deskera already generates, alongside the e-invoice IRNs it raises against the IRP. Your entity records sit with it: GSTIN, PAN and TAN kept updated by our team, plus registrations and licences by jurisdiction, and we incorporate in India. The same connection covers Singapore GST, Malaysian SST and the rest of the 70+ countries.

Yes. GST registration in Singapore is part of what we do, alongside Australia, New Zealand and Canada. IRAS runs two tests: a retrospective one, where taxable turnover for the calendar year exceeded S$1 million, and a prospective one, where you reasonably expect to exceed S$1 million in the next twelve months. The prospective route now carries a two-month grace period before you have to start charging, for liabilities arising on or after 1 July 2025, though the application is still due within 30 days of the forecast. Commenda tracks the turnover, files the application and then handles the GST F5 cycle.

Not as published coverage, and we will not pretend otherwise. We support indirect tax across 70+ countries and keep adding to it. For markets that require local credentials we work through vetted local partners under our coordination, so you still file and remit through one relationship rather than sourcing an agent yourself. Deskera already generates the SST-02 return and the Indonesian VAT setup on its side. Tell us the countries you actually sell into and we will say which we cover directly and which run through a partner, before you sign anything.

They are two different accreditations. Deskera cites the IRAS Accounting Software Register, which is about generating compliant tax invoices, Form 5 and the IRAS Audit File. The GST InvoiceNow requirement is separate: IRAS requires GST-registered businesses to transmit invoice data using an InvoiceNow-Ready Solution from IMDA's accredited list, over the Peppol-based InvoiceNow network. The phases run 1 November 2025 for companies registering voluntarily within six months of incorporation, 1 April 2026 for later voluntary registrations, 1 April 2028 for compulsory registrations and businesses under S$200,000 of annual supplies, then 2029, 2030 and 2031 by size. Overseas entities and reverse-charge-only registrants are excluded.

Sales and Service Tax. Deskera's ERP statutory compliance page for Malaysia documents GST Form 3, the GST-03 return and the GAF audit file, which belong to the GST regime withdrawn on 1 September 2018. Its Deskera Books help centre is current and covers SST instead, including the SST-02 return, the different SST types, Schedules A, B and C, and vendor type on a contact. Royal Malaysian Customs runs the regime under the Sales Tax Act 2018 and the Service Tax Act 2018. If you are scoping Malaysia, work from the Books articles rather than the ERP marketing page.

At the border of the nine countries its tax content covers. An export out of Singapore is zero-rated for GST, which is correct locally and says nothing about the buyer's jurisdiction. One business-to-consumer digital sale into the EU can create a VAT obligation there, and EU One Stop Shop lets you register in a single member state and file for all 27 from it. For sellers based outside the EU we usually recommend the Netherlands or Ireland. On the US side, sales into a state you never selected in Deskera calculate at zero while the threshold still counts them. Commenda covers both sides from the same Deskera data.
