新加坡

When deciding whether to become an Airbnb host, it's important for you to understand the laws in your city. As a platform and marketplace, we do not provide legal advice, but we want to provide some useful links that may help you better understand laws and regulations in Singapore. This list is not exhaustive, and there may be additional laws, regulations, requirements, or considerations as may be in place from time to time based on your individual circumstances. If you have questions, you may wish to contact the Housing and Development Board (HDB) or the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) directly or consult a local lawyer or tax professional.

For public housing:

• Airbnb does not permit hosting in a HDB public housing property on Airbnb.
• The Housing and Development Act and its various subsidiary legislation, which govern public housing in Singapore (ex: HDB properties), are available here.
• The HDB has promulgated subletting regulations on the renting out of entire HDB properties and bedrooms.

For private residential properties (ex: not HDB flats):

• The use of private residential properties is governed by the Planning Act and its various subsidiary legislation, which are available here.
• The Planning Act was amended with effect from 30 June 2017 to allow rental of private residential properties for not less than three consecutive months to the same person.
• In May 2019, URA announced that despite extensive consultations with stakeholders about a proposed regulatory framework for short-term accommodation, the minimum stay duration of three months will continue to apply for any accommodation in private residential properties.
• As URA has decided to maintain the status quo, it will continue to enforce the requirement of a minimum stay duration of three months in private residential properties.
