Permitting in Singapore for Industrial Plants

Why Permitting Matters in Singapore

Singapore is a global hub for manufacturing and process industries — but the permitting process can be complex.

Whether you're expanding into Singapore or building your first facility here, you’ll need to navigate approvals from multiple government agencies:

  • URA / JTC – Land use and planning

  • BCA – Building and structural plans

  • SCDF – Fire safety and fire protection plans

  • NEA / PUB / EMA – Environmental, sanitary, drainage, and utility approvals

Mistakes or delays in any of these submissions can lead to costly overruns or project halts.
