# What are the accounting standards in Singapore?

Singapore has its own Accouting standards called Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (SFRS). It’s similar to IFRS and it’s accrual-based accounting. This means transactions are recognised when they take place and not when the money is paid. Outsourced accounting services in Singapore must comply with SFRS requirements.
