Moving to Singapore, or moving back
Your first move into a Singapore rental, and what to sort out when you come home after years away.
Your first move in Singapore: from a serviced apartment into a rental
Sign the tenancy agreement and stamp it within 14 days, then open your SP Group account and check the building's move-in rules. At handover, record the flat's condition before your shipment is delivered, move what's in the serviced apartment, and update your address with MOM within 5 days.

Returning citizens and PRs can get GST relief on used household goods owned for three months or more, but not on liquor, tobacco or cars, and the declaration must reach Singapore Customs before the shipment arrives. Tell HDB within 7 days when tenants leave your flat, and report your new address to ICA within 28 days.
