SLA handles the registration of all property transactions and regulates the process of property boundary survey (cadastral survey) in Singapore. We also process application by foreign persons who wish to purchase a landed residential property in Singapore.

FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY

A foreign person who is not a Singapore citizen, Singapore company, Singapore limited liability partnership or Singapore society and wishes to purchase a landed residential property is required to seek approval under the Residential Property Act.

PROPERTY BOUNDARIES

The process of a property boundary survey (cadastral survey) is regulated by SLA. A property owner will need to engage a practising Registered Surveyor to carry out the property boundary survey.
