SINGAPORE CHILD’S SEAT RULES

Singapore Child’s seat Rules

Singapore’s Car Seat Law — The One Rule Every Parent Must Know
Under the Road Traffic (Motor Vehicles, Wearing of Seat Belts) Rules 2011 (S 688/2011), all passengers below 1.35 m in height must be secured in an approved child restraint system when travelling in a private vehicle or private hire vehicle. This law is enforced by the Singapore Traffic Police and the Land Transport Authority (LTA).
Three things make Singapore’s law unique compared to what most parenting websites describe:
1. It is height-based, not age-based. A 9-year-old who has not yet reached 1.35 m is legally required to use a booster seat. A tall 6-year-old who has already passed 1.35 m is not. Height is the only threshold that matters under the law.
2. It applies to Grab but not taxis. Licensed street-hail taxis are legally exempt. Grab, Gojek, and other private hire vehicles are not. GrabFamily provides seats for children aged 1–7, but no service exists for infants under 1 year — you must bring your own seat for newborns in any Grab ride.
3. Your car seat must carry ECE R44/04 or ECE R129 certification. Uncertified seats — however cheap or well-reviewed — are not legally compliant. Always verify the certification label on the seat before purchasing.
Penalty: The on-the-spot composition fine is S$120 and 3 demerit points. Court conviction carries up to S$1,000 or 3 months imprisonment for a first offence. The fine can apply to parents as passengers — not just drivers.
