About Singpass Foreign Account
-
The Singpass Foreign user Account (SFA) enables foreign users to engage with specific government digital services in Singapore, including accessing digital services on the GoBusiness Dashboard.
It’s important to activate the new Singpass Foreign user Account within 30 days from the date of issuance. Failure to take action within this period will result in the termination of the account.

Foreign individuals who do not have a Singapore Government-issued ID will be eligible to apply for a Singpass for Foreign user Account with GoBusiness, if you need to transact with us digitally for Individual licences.
