Did you know? Your Singpass app allows you to:

  1. Get a ‘blue tick’ identity verification on Carousell

  2. Access your digital driving licence

  3. View your past O/N/A-Level results

The Singpass app was first launched in October 2018 to provide Singaporeans with a convenient way to access government services. Today, Singpass is so much more. As our national digital identity, it has connected more than 5 million residents to over 2,700 services (and counting)!

As a Smart Nation (opens in new tab), Singpass represents our continuous drive towards a smarter and more inclusive nation where ALL Singaporeans can benefit, even when they are overseas.

Cheers to that feeling when you don't have to scramble around in your wallet to fish for your NRIC!
