Sometimes, you want to amend the information previously reported on any form IR56B / IR56F. Other than the type Original, there are 3 kinds of tax form types: Replacement, Additional, and Supplementary for you to submit the Supplements / Amendments to IRD.

Difference between tax form type Original, Replacement, Supplementary and Additional

You can generate eTax file to submit IR56F/IR56B according to the type of tax form. You may refer to the below guidelines:

  • Original - If this is your first time submitting the placement's IR56B/ IR56F

  • Replacement - If you have already submitted the placement's IR56b/IR56F, but you find something missing or wrong, e.g missing/wrong tax amount or address and need to make modifications. So you submit the form again to replace the Original one.

  • Not Applicable in system Supplementary - If you have already submitted IR56B, and you find you have omitted to submit (some) placement's original IR56B for filing to IRD in the annual submission. As each company can only submit 1 time Original IR56B, you need to submit Supplementary form.

  • Not Applicable in system Additional - If you have already submitted the placement's IR56B/IR56F, but you find there is missing tax amount and you just want to submit the missing amount again.
