Summary

Singapore's Ministry of Manpower has amended the Foreign Employee Dormitories Regulations 2015, replacing regulation 5 with revised fee calculation formulas for dormitory licences. The application fee and licence/renewal fee are now calculated using a formula based on occupancy load and a rate of $1.50 per person, with the occupancy threshold capped at 15,000. The amendment took effect on 1 April 2026.

What changed

The Foreign Employee Dormitories (Amendment) Regulations 2026 replaces regulation 5 of the principal regulations with a restructured fee calculation framework. The new regulation specifies two fee types: (1) application fees for licence applications and renewals, calculated as A × B where A is $1.50 and B is the occupancy load or 15,000 (whichever is lower); and (2) licence and renewal fees calculated as A × B × C, adding a term factor. The amendment maintains the $1.50 per-person rate and 15,000 occupancy cap while clarifying how partial years are calculated (days divided by 365).

Dormitory operators and licence holders must use these revised formulas when calculating fees payable under the Foreign Employee Dormitories Act 2015. The regulations took effect on 1 April 2026 and apply to all dormitories licensed under the Act. Operators should verify their fee calculations conform to the new formulas and update any internal processes or systems used for fee computation.

What to do next

  1. Recalculate dormitory licence and renewal fees using the new formula: $1.50 × occupancy load (capped at 15,000) × term in years
  2. Update financial systems and accounting processes to reflect the revised fee calculation methodology
  3. Ensure application fees are submitted as non-refundable amounts calculated under the new formula
