Singapore Launches 2025 S&CC Rebate Scheme to Ease Cost of Living

In a continued push to ease the pressure of inflation and rising expenses, the Singapore government has rolled out its 2025 Service and Conservancy Charges (S&CC) Rebate Scheme. This initiative provides eligible Housing and Development Board (HDB) households with rebates of up to S$950 for the year, helping to lower monthly conservancy fees while ensuring essential estate maintenance continues smoothly.

Strategic Cost Relief Delivered Quarterly

Part of the larger Assurance Package, these S&CC rebates aim to support Singaporeans facing heightened financial challenges. The rebates are credited automatically on a quarterly basis—in April, July, and October 2025, with a final installment arriving in January 2026. Payments go straight into residents’ S&CC accounts managed by their respective Town Councils.

HDB Households Receive Tailored Support for Estate Maintenance

No matter the flat size—from one-room to executive units—the rebate amount adjusts to reflect the household’s needs. One- and two-room flats receive the highest relief, covering up to four months of charges, while larger units like executive flats get rebates for up to two months. This tiered system ensures those with tighter budgets receive the most help.

Helping to Offset Monthly S&CC Fees

S&CC fees cover vital services like cleaning, lighting in common areas, lift maintenance, and landscaping. Through the 2025 rebate scheme, the government will offset two to four months of these fees. This reduces household expenses and keeps HDB neighborhoods clean, safe, and well-managed.

No Application Needed – It’s Automatic

A standout feature of the scheme is its automatic implementation. Eligible households don’t need to fill out forms or apply. Once qualified, the rebate is directly credited to their Town Council account, ensuring a hassle-free experience without delays.

Who Qualifies for the 2025 S&CC Rebate?

To receive this government support, households must meet the following criteria:

  • At least one Singapore citizen must reside in the flat
  • The household must live in an HDB flat
  • No household member should own or co-own a private property
  • Flats that are fully rented out are not eligible

These rules ensure that the help goes to those who truly need it.

Easy Online Access to Check Rebate Status

While no application is needed, residents can check their eligibility and payment status online. By logging into My HDBPage via Singpass, users can visit the S&CC Rebate section under “My Flat” to view:

More Relief Within the Assurance Package

The S&CC rebate is just one element of the broader Assurance Package. Eligible households can also receive:

  • U-Save rebates worth up to S$760 annually to help with utility bills
  • One-time cash payouts of up to S$700
  • CDC vouchers to spend on essential goods at participating merchants

Together, these measures form a comprehensive support system for Singaporean families.

Supporting Communities with Practical Financial Help

Through targeted subsidies for daily living costs—like estate upkeep and utilities—Singapore continues to demonstrate its dedication to protecting residents’ wellbeing. These efforts ensure that all Singaporeans can live in clean, safe, and well-maintained environments without bearing excessive financial burdens.
