You will need to submit an online application via https://go.gov.sg/pto under “Deceased’s estate other than un-nominated CPF moneys / Baby Bonus / Edusave / PSEA”.

If the Deceased left behind a car or motorcycle, you could request for a transfer to the beneficiary if the total value the Deceased’s estate is less than $50,000.

Common types of documents required are:

• Death Certificate of Deceased

• Birth Certificate of Deceased

• Marriage Certificate of Deceased

• Decree Nisi Absolute (if the Deceased was divorced)

• Birth Certificate of Beneficiary

• Identity Card of Beneficiary

• Death Certificate of Beneficiary (if Deceased)

• Marriage Certificate of Deceased’s Parents

• Death Certificate of Parent (if Deceased)

• Certificate of Inheritance (For Muslims only)

• PARF/COE Rebate certificate for the vehicle obtainable from https://onemotoring.lta.gov.sg

If there are multiple beneficiaries, (e.g., Deceased left behind a spouse and children) they may choose to give up their share so that claimant can claim the motor vehicle. Alternatively, the claimant may buy over the other beneficiary’s shares.

Important: Only beneficiary who is 21 years old and above can give up his / her share.
