What the Quarterly S&CC Rebate Means for You

Think of this rebate as a quiet but helpful cushion.
Every quarter, you’ll see a smaller bill from your Town Council—Uncle and Auntie staying in 1-room or even DBSS flats will feel the relief most.

These rebates are part of Singapore’s ongoing cost-of-living support, especially for households who depend on their monthly GST Vouchers and utility savings to stretch their budgets.

When Will You Receive the S&CC Rebate?

Rebates will be applied automatically to your Town Council account in:

A HDB household qualifies if:

  • There’s at least one Singapore Citizen owner or essential occupier.
  • The owners/occupiers do not own private property.
  • The flat is not rented out fully.

If your home is under these conditions, the rebate will appear automatically in your account.

Penalty Fees

Across all units and commercial shops, late payment penalty is $15 per month.
If you run a small shop, hawker stall, or kiosk, your S&CC is calculated by psm (per square metre) plus a basic flat-type charge.

This affects cooked food sellers, fresh produce stalls, mama shops, and kiosk operators.

Normal S&CC Rates Apply When…

The normal (higher) rate is charged if:

  • No owner/tenant/occupier is a Singapore Citizen
  • Any owner/occupier owns any private residential, commercial, or industrial property
  • The flat is owned/leased by a company or body corporate
  • The flat is vacant

All S&CC is inclusive of GST.
