Crystal Jade Fine Dining faces charge for failing to file income tax returns on time
Its parent company Crystal Jade has also shuttered a string of outlets this year.
Court proceedings concerning Crystal Jade Fine Dining's failure to file its 2025 income tax return on time have been postponed for four weeks. This is the subsidiary's first court absence, according to the prosecutor. The charge stems from the company's non-compliance with the Income Tax Act, which carries a potential fine of up to $5,000 if found guilty.
In September, Crystal Jade announced the closure of five of its Singapore outlets, bringing its total to five this year. The closures were part of the company's operational review and network optimization. The group had previously shut down outlets in Hillion Mall, Suntec City, and Holland Village, leaving it with approximately 13 operational locations as of June 2025.
Established in 1991, Crystal Jade was once one of Singapore's fastest-growing Chinese restaurant chains, boasting 120 restaurants globally in 2015, including 47 in the country.
