Common questions

When do contributions have to be paid?

EPF and ETF contributions for each month are due by the last working day of the following month. Late payments attract escalating surcharges — your StartOne calendar reminds you before every deadline.

What are the contribution rates?

EPF is 8% from the employee and 12% from the employer; ETF is a further 3% from the employer. In total the employer remits 23% of gross earnings each month.
