Who is eligible for EASE (Private) vouchers?

Eligibility is age-based for seniors living in private housing. Vouchers are issued in phases from Apr 1 through Oct 1. Households must use pre-qualified contractors to install seven approved upgrades. Keep proof of residence and identification handy, and ask contractors to provide itemised quotes before booking.

How much do households pay out of pocket?

Vouchers cover 75% of the approved works, capped at S$1,200 per household. The remaining 25% is a co-pay paid by the household. Always confirm the voucher amount applied to your quote, the co-pay, and any extras that are not covered before you schedule installation.

What is the investment angle of this policy?

If fully redeemed, subsidies could total up to S$96 million across more than 80,000 households, with total project value as high as S$128 million including co-pays. This should lift order books for pre-qualified contractors and increase turnover for suppliers of safety hardware, bathroom goods, and related services.

How long are the vouchers valid and when should I book?

Vouchers start from Apr 1, are phased by age through Oct 1, and remain redeemable until 2029. Households can book when ready, but contractors may be busier near each phase release. Compare quotes early, confirm lead times, and secure installation dates that suit your family’s schedule.
