Sure, so you want to manually create tax rates and only apply them for your customers in Singapore?

For one time purchase, I'd recommend using Invoicing API so that you can set default_tax_rates on the invoice object https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/create?lang=cli#create_invoice-default_tax_rates, or tax_rates on its individual invoice item.
For recurring payments, you can also specify default_tax_rate (https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create?lang=cli#create_subscription-default_tax_rates) when creating a subscription

is the default tax rate will be calculated automatically?
For one time purchase. I usually immediately create a payment intent
summer spear
PaymentIntent API doesn't support tax rates
https://docs.stripe.com/tax/custom but you can use the tax calculations API to calcualte the tax and use the caclulated amount to create a PaymentIntent

which one is better?
should i create invoice first?
so the flow is
create invoice with default tax rate -> create PI
or
create a Tax Calculation -> create PI
is that so?

I'd recommend Invoiceing API. But it's entirely up to you to decide which API work best for your use case.
