In a major relief for households across the country, Singapore has launched the 2025 edition of the CDC Vouchers Scheme. Every Singaporean household is entitled to claim $300 worth of vouchers, which can be used for groceries, meals, and essential services in their neighbourhoods. This initiative is part of the broader Assurance Package designed to help residents cope with rising living costs.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to claim and make the most of this support before it expires.
What Are the CDC Vouchers?
The Community Development Council (CDC) Vouchers are distributed by the Singapore government to help families with daily living expenses and to support local businesses. For 2025, the total value is $300 per household, split into two equal categories:
-
$150 for supermarkets
-
$150 for hawker stalls and heartland merchants
The vouchers are fully digital and can be shared among family members for convenience.
Who Is Eligible?
The scheme is available to all Singaporean households, regardless of income level. Only one claim can be made per household. The person making the claim must:
-
Be a Singapore citizen
-
Have a registered Singpass account

Households that don’t have digital access can visit community centres for assistance.
