Singapore increased ABSD rates effective for acquisitions on or after 27 April 2023, to pre-emptively moderate investment demand and prioritise owner-occupation after private residential prices accelerated 3.3% QoQ in Q1 2023. Foreigners 30% to 60%; SC second property 17% to 20%; SC third and subsequent 25% to 30%; SPR second 25% to 30%; SPR third and subsequent 30% to 35%; entities and trusts 35% to 65% excluding qualifying housing developers, who continued to face 35% subject to remission conditions plus the unchanged 5% non-remittable component. First-property rates for SCs (0%) and SPRs (5%) were unchanged; these groups accounted for around 90% of residential transactions based on 2022 data. The Government estimated roughly 10% of transactions would be affected (government estimate).

Methodology5 rules
  • Comparison anchored to effective date: 27 April 2023. The anchor is the effective date where one is recorded, otherwise the announcement date.
  • The windows are the same number of days on each side of the anchor, and the anchor day belongs to the after window.
  • A series counts toward a window only for observation periods wholly inside it, with values as originally recorded, not as later revised.
  • Where no whole period falls inside a window, no value and no difference is stated; a day no whole period covers is missing, never zero.
  • Concurrent land sales and archive events are listed by date alone. Nothing on this page is attributed to the event.
