At 7, children must attend primary school under the Compulsory Education Act. At 13, male Singapore citizens and PRs who plan to leave Singapore for more than three months must apply for an exit permit, and if they are away for over two years, a bond of $75,000 or 50% of their parents’ combined annual gross income (whichever is higher) is required. Thirteen is also the minimum age to work, but only in non-industrial settings and for light duties. At 15, Singaporeans receive their first NRIC, usually processed through their schools.At 16, consensual sex becomes legal, but there are extra protections for those aged 16 to under 18 in exploitative or paid situations. Around 16.5, male citizens and PRs receive a letter to register for National Service and may opt to start serving from that age. At 18, several major rights start: a person can obtain a driving licence, buy and consume alcohol, register a business with ACRA, and sign most types of contracts, although major property transactions like leases over three years remain restricted. Eighteen is also the minimum age to marry with parental or guardian consent; full capacity to marry without consent begins at 21.At 21, a person is considered a full adult in more areas: they can marry without anyone’s consent, vote in elections, and even stand for election as a Member of Parliament. The minimum age to buy cigarettes and smoke is 21, after a policy change from 18 to 21 in 2021. The general minimum age for gambling at casinos is 21, while certain forms of gambling, like Singapore Pools, are allowed from 18 due to different gambling categories under the Gambling Control Act. At 30, NRIC re-registration is required if no replacement has been issued in the last ten years, and married persons may add their married names. Thirty is also the minimum age to be a PHV or taxi driver.From mid-life onwards, the milestones focus on housing, defence obligations, health and retirement. At 35, unmarried individuals can buy an HDB flat under specific schemes, either alone, with other single friends, or with an unmarried partner. At 40, most male NSmen stop being liable for reservist and other NSmen duties, as the statutory age limit is 40 for most, and 50 for officers. At this age, Singaporeans can also join Healthier SG, choosing a regular family doctor and accessing subsidised screenings. At 55, CPF members may withdraw excess savings from their CPF accounts (subject to prevailing rules) and must re-register their NRIC again. At 60, a person is officially considered a senior citizen, can receive a Senior Citizen Concession Card, enjoy longer “green man” times at some crossings, and qualify for various discounts and perks. At 63, the minimum retirement age under the Retirement and Re-employment Act currently applies, with plans to raise it to 64 in 2026 and 65 by 2030. At 65, CPF members generally begin receiving monthly payouts from their CPF savings, with amounts depending on how much they have accumulated.
