Singpass Sign: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use Singpass Sign to create legally binding digital signatures for your contracts.
Singpass Sign is a digital tool that allows you to sign documents electronically using your Singpass identity. It provides a way to complete paperwork through your phone or computer rather than using physical pens and paper.
Who it's for
This service is available to all Singpass users. If you already have a Singpass account and use the app for your digital identity needs in Singapore, you qualify to use this signing feature.
What you get
When you use this service, you get the ability to create digital signatures that are legally binding for your contracts. This means that the signatures you create through the Singpass platform hold the same legal weight as a traditional handwritten signature on a physical piece of paper. It is designed to make signing agreements more efficient by allowing you to complete the process digitally.
What it costs you
There is no cost to use this service. It is provided at zero cost to the user, meaning you do not have to pay any fees to access the digital signing functionality through your account.
The catch to know
The most important thing to remember is that you must ensure the other party involved in your agreement accepts digital signatures. While the signatures are legally binding, some individuals or organizations may still require traditional physical signatures or specific manual processes. Always confirm with the person or company you are signing a contract with that they are able to accept a signature made via Singpass Sign before you begin the process.
