The GST Voucher (GSTV) scheme is one of Singapore’s key initiatives to help lower- and middle-income households cope with rising costs. With the Goods and Services Tax (GST) gradually increasing, the government provides direct financial support in the form of cash payouts, MediSave top-ups, and U-Save rebates.
In September 2025, the next round of payouts will be distributed to eligible Singaporeans. The scheme is carefully structured to make sure that assistance reaches the households that need it most, while supporting Singapore’s goal of maintaining fairness in its tax system.
