How much do LPA Certificate Issuers (CI) charge for their services? Why are some CI fees so high?
There are three groups of professionals who can act as LPA Certificate Issuers - Medical practitioners accredited by OPG, Lawyers* and Psychiatrists.
OPG does not prescribe the CI fees charged as it varies with the complexity of the case. Hence, there is a range of CIs who can offer services to meet the different needs of the donors. Members of the public are advised to check with the individual CI on his professional charges. More information can be found here.
To encourage LPA making, OPG has waived the application fee for all Singaporeans making Form 1 till March 2026.
