NRIC Address - Help Needed

[michaely]

I'm currently staying with my parents. My parents have decided to sell the house and stay with my brother.

I'll be renting a room but I'm afraid that the landlord would not allow me to change my nric address to his. Also, I don't want to change my nric address every time i change landlord.

I know there's a type of service "registered office address" for businesses for about $10/mth.

I just need an address for my nric and receiving mails only. I wonder is such kind of service available for individual?

Thanks in advance!

just in time.... im looking for an answer to this problem as well

If every landlord allowed his tenants to change their address to his, very soon all landlords will be harassed by loansharks who demand payment from the errant tenants.

There is a reason why landlords will never allow that.

Huh? Why can't you use the address of the place you stay in? Need the landlords approval?

is it possible to use a PO BOx address for your IC...?

It is against the law not to give your real address as your NRIC address. So just grab a copy of the PUB bill and change your address at the police station.

You simply need to go to ICA Building, Level 3 Citizen Services Centre or any of the Neighbourhood Police Posts/Centres to update the change of address in your Identity Card (IC) who will then verify the information on his print-out with your personal particulars against the documents produced (check out the acceptable documents below).

A sticker showing the new address would then be printed and pasted onto your existing IC.

Acceptable Documents for IC Address Verification
■Telecommunication / Internet bill
■Service and Conservancy bill from town council
■Utilities bill from Singapore Power
■Cable TV bill
■Credit Card / Bank statement
■Insurance bill / statement / letter
■Tenancy agreement for residence
■Bill / statement / letter from HDB
■Bill / statement / letter from IRAS (e.g. Income Tax, Property Tax, etc)
■Bill / letter from LTA (e.g. Road Tax)
■TV / Radio license bill
■Statement / letter from CPF

If I'm not wrong, you need to bring along your utility bill either in you name or a household member as proof of residency. So P.O. Box or secretarial office will not work.

Why don't you change it to your brother's address?

My thought is why don't you change the address to your brother's where your parent is staying with.


I hope your parent is selling the place to buy another house (bigger or smaller doesnt matter) but not giving the money to the sons and daugther, for them to buy a bigger house, or as downpayment or.....

Better still, if your parent have another house, then no worry there.....

Hi sis, I'm also not sure whether can use PO box.

ICA website is not clear about this, here's the link:

cannot PO box. must be a physical address.

while using your bro home as an address is the best option for you but it against the law as you dont stay there.

Unlikely that you will have any bills to show if you just rented the room. Your best bet is the tenancy agreement i guess. Unless it's a dodgy rental agreement

the service co will not let you use a PO Box in the first place so there will never be a bill that goes to a PO Box....

Good one. Must indicate nick and inf status.

Answer to TS question is the virtual office will not allow you to use but you can do it secretly since your mail is forwarded there. No issues and won't be found out unless got any trouble.

PO box not allowed.
