Frequently Asked Questions
Programme Eligibility
Who is eligible for the enhanced CFHP?
Each HDB household* is only entitled to one set of vouchers. To be eligible for the enhanced Climate Vouchers, the following needs to be met:
-
You are a Singapore Citizen or Permanent Resident, and
-
Your residential address is registered at an HDB flat.
If I was eligible for the previous CFHP, am I eligible to apply for another set of Climate Vouchers under the enhanced CFHP?
The previous round of Climate Vouchers expired on 20 March 2024.
Regardless of whether you have redeemed Climate Vouchers under the previous CFHP, all HDB households* are eligible for one set of Climate Vouchers under the enhanced CFHP. You may claim a new set of vouchers at go.gov.sg/cv-claim. The enhanced Climate Vouchers will be available until 31 December 2027.
There are multiple households residing at the same address. Please provide my household with a set of vouchers.
Multiple families/tenants living in the same registered address are collectively entitled to 1 set of Climate Vouchers for the same registered address/flat. Thus, only one member of the dwelling unit needs to claim the Vouchers and share the voucher link with the rest of the members.
I am the owner of the HDB flat, however I do not reside at the HDB flat (i.e. registered address as per NRIC is not at the HDB flat). Am I eligible to claim a set of Climate Vouchers for the HDB flat?
The Climate Vouchers are intended for the residents of the HDB flat to assist in lowering the upfront cost for the purchase of resource-efficient appliances and fittings. In this regard, an owner of a HDB flat whose registered address is not at the flat is unable to claim Climate Vouchers for the flat.

Retailers

connect to the internet to redeem vouchers in real-time via API integration,
-
configure a whitelisting module for eligible products (i.e. a module in your POS or Sales system that can ensure that the Climate Vouchers are only used for NEA/PUB-approved items), and
-
support QR code scanning.
