What is a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) in Singapore?

The LPA is a legal document which allows a person who is at least 21 years of age (‘donor’), to voluntarily appoint one or more persons (‘donee(s)’) to make decisions and act on his/her behalf if the donor loses mental capacity one day.

A Donee can be appointed to act in the two broad areas of personal welfare and property & affairs matters.

Benefits of an LPA

  • Enables a person to make a personal, considered choice of a trusted proxy decision maker, who is reliable and competent to act in his/her best interests should he/she lose mental capacity one day.
  • Alleviates the stress and difficulties faced by loved ones who need to apply for a Deputyship order, if the person loses mental capacity without an LPA in place.

Cost of making a LPA in Singapore

  • At ATA Medical, the cost of making a LPA is $65 before GST.
  • Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) has waived the LPA Form 1 application fee for Singapore Citizens till 31st March 2023.

The difference between LPA Form 1 and LPA Form 2

  • LPA Form 1: For Donors who wish to grant Donee(s) general power with basic restrictions.
  • LPA Form 2: For Donors who wish to grant Donee(s) customised powers. The clauses in the LPA Form 2 have to be drafted by a qualified Singapore lawyer*.

98% of Singapore Citizens who have made an LPA used the LPA Form 1.
*Note: This refers to a Singapore solicitor qualified to practice Singapore law in a Singapore law practice.

Yes, it will. Should you ever be in a situation where you are unable to act, your spouse will need to make an application to become a “deputy”. This is a long and costly procedure, and a LPA ensures your spouse can act on your behalf - such as paying for your medical expenses.
You will receive an SMS and email from the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF).
