A Singapore Government Agency Website

How to identify

Official website links end with .gov.sg

Government agencies communicate via .gov.sg websites (e.g. go.gov.sg/open). Trusted websites

Secure websites use HTTPS

Look for a lock () or https:// as an added precaution. Share sensitive information only on official, secure websites.

Scam alert

Government officers will never ask you to send money or share your details over the phone. When unsure, hang up and call Scamshield at 1799.
