Singapore Overseas Missions have ceased taking in applications for Singapore Citizenship (SC).

With the enhancements to the online portal for Singapore citizenship applications, SC parents can now apply online and upload all required documents online, saving one physical trip to the nearest overseas mission and/or ICA. To apply, the sponsoring SC parent can log in to ICA's e-service here (opens in new tab) using your SingPass account. More information can be found here (opens in new tab).

For child born overseas, please click here (opens in new tab).

Applicants are advised to submit passport applications in tandem with the Citizenship applications, if necessary.

For all queries and update of application status, please email ICA_Citizenship_Unit@ica.gov.sg (opens in new tab) or call +65 6391 6324.
