Residential
The Home Office Scheme allows homeowners, registered occupants, or tenants of HDB flats to operate small-scale offices in their homes, subject to the prevailing conditions of use.
You can use your flat to run the administrative functions of a business and hire up to two non-resident employees.
Your flat must remain as a place of residence at all times. Business activities must be confined within the flat and should not cause disamenities to your neighbours.
To obtain a Licence for Home Office Scheme, you and the business you operate must fulfil our guidelines and criteria.
You will need to refer to these instructions to register for Home Office Scheme, update your business particulars, or terminate your Home Office registration.
