How do I make a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)?

To make a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA):

Step 1: Choose Your Donee(s)

A Donee is someone you appoint to make decisions for you (Donor) if you lose mental capacity. Choose someone you trust to be your Donee (aged 21 and above).

Step 2: Draft Your LPA Online Via OPG Online (OPGO)

Log in to OPGO via Singpass to fill up the online LPA application. Appoint trusted person(s) as your Donee(s) and decide on powers to be granted to them.

Donee(s) will log in to OPGO via Singpass to review your LPA, and accept appointment as Donee.

Step 3: Get Your LPA Certified

Visit a Certificate Issuer (CI) (Accredited Medical Practitioner, Practising Lawyer or Registered Psychiatrist) to have your LPA certified. Bring the mobile phone stated in your LPA, with the Singpass app installed, for digital signing.

Step 4: Your Digital LPA is Ready

Donor and Donee(s) will be notified of LPA status via SMS/email when your digital LPA is accepted and registered.
