If my foreign employees request to contribute to CPF, can I make CPF contributions for them?

Question

Accepted Answer

CPF is a comprehensive social security system that is intended to support Singapore Citizens and Singapore Permanent Residents (SPRs). From 1 January 2003, CPF contributions are exempted for foreign employees as they may not retire here in Singapore. Therefore, CPF contributions are only payable for Singapore Citizens and SPRs.

For foreigners who wish to save voluntarily for their own retirement, they may instead consider Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS).
