Formule
Most Singapore restaurants use "++" pricing: listed price + 10% service charge + 9% GST. A SGD 100++ dish costs SGD 119.90 total. The 10% service charge replaces tipping. GST is calculated on price + service charge. At hawker centres and food courts, prices are nett (final) with no service charge or GST.
Questions Frequentes
Do you tip in Singapore?
No. Tipping is not expected or customary in Singapore. Most restaurants add a mandatory 10% service charge to the bill, which replaces the need for tipping. Hawker centres, food courts, and casual eateries have no tipping culture at all. Singapore follows Asian norms rather than Western tipping customs.
What does ++ mean on Singapore menus?
The "++" notation means the listed price excludes 10% service charge and 9% GST. A dish listed at SGD 50++ will cost: SGD 50 + SGD 5 (10% service) + SGD 4.95 (9% GST on the SGD 55 subtotal) = SGD 59.95 total. Some restaurants show "nett" prices that include everything.
Is the 10% service charge a tip?
The 10% service charge is added by the restaurant and is supposed to be distributed to staff, but policies vary by establishment. Since it is automatically included, no additional tip is expected. If service was truly exceptional, a small extra amount is a kind but unusual gesture in Singapore.
Should I tip at hawker centres?
No. Hawker centres (Singapore's famous open-air food courts) have absolutely no tipping culture. You order at the counter, pay the stated price, and return your tray. Prices at hawker centres are very affordable (SGD 3-8 per dish) and include no service charge or GST for most stalls.
How does GST work with the service charge?
Singapore GST of 9% (raised from 8% in January 2024) is calculated on the price PLUS service charge. For a SGD 100++ bill: service charge = SGD 10, subtotal = SGD 110, GST = SGD 110 x 9% = SGD 9.90, total = SGD 119.90. The effective total markup from "++" pricing is approximately 19.9%.
Do I tip at bars or clubs in Singapore?
No. Bars and nightclubs in Singapore typically include a 10% service charge in their prices, especially at Marina Bay Sands, Clarke Quay, and other popular venues. Additional tipping is not expected or customary at any nightlife establishment.
