There are several 2FA options that you can choose from depending on your preference.



  • Singpass app

    • If you have a smartphone, you may download the Singpass app to log in using your fingerprint, face or a 6-digit passcode. Download the app from the App Store or Google Play Store.

  • Face Verification

    • This feature allows you to log in by entering your Singpass ID and password, followed by scanning your face on a computer with a web camera, or a smartphone with a front-facing camera.

  • SMS 2FA

    • If you have a mobile phone that cannot download apps, you may log in to  Singpass Portal to set up your SMS 2FA. With this, you can use the SMS One-Time Password (OTP) sent to your mobile number to log into Singpass. Only Singapore-registered mobile numbers may be used for this.

  • Multi-User SMS 2FA

    • If a family member is helping you with your transactions, you can give your one-time explicit consent to link your Singpass account to his/her mobile number for the purpose of receiving the SMS-OTP. Both parties are required to activate this option at any of the Singpass counters islandwide. If you have difficulties being physically present, please contact our Singpass Helpdesk at If you have difficulties being physically present, please contact our Singpass Helpdesk at support@singpass.gov.sg.
