SINGAPORE — Passport covers resembling Singaporean passports have been removed from Taobao, after the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) reached out to the Chinese e-commerce platform to take down the listings.

According to The Straits Times, the imitation passport covers were sold for RMB138 (S$26) on Taobao until early December. Similar to government-issued Singapore passports, the covers showcased the state crest on a red background, and were offered in alternative colours, like black and purple. Merchants had also claimed that the passport covers were waterproof and made of real leather.

An MCCY spokesperson had told The Straits Times on Wednesday (13 December) that the sale of any object bearing the state crest is prohibited without proper authorisation. According to the National Symbols Regulations 2023, the use of the state crest is limited to government departments only.

A check by Yahoo Southeast Asia on Thursday found no faux Singapore passport covers sold on e-commerce sites Lazada and Shopee.

Reddit thread brought matter to light, netizens concerned over reappearance​

A screenshot of the passport cover Taobao listing first surfaced on a reddit thread on 5 December by user "twistycatlyman". It has since garnered over 160 comments and over 800 upvotes.

Should have thought of this day when you brought that trashy country into the WTO in 2001.

The Tiong commies don't even respect maritime territorial laws, what makes you think they will respect your trade secrets, your copyrights etc? Elon Musk is finding out the hard way now with his Tesla business.

Look at her trying to sneakily promote the wearing of masks. And the obligatory slight dig at the backward Sinkie payment system of using cash, unlike 伟大的祖国 where everything is cashless.
