If you live in an HDB flat in Singapore, there’s $400 waiting for you — but only if you know where to click. The Climate Voucher program, part of the Climate Friendly Households initiative, gives every eligible household two separate vouchers worth $300 and $100 to spend on energy-efficient appliances and water fittings.

Claim period: 15 April 2025 to 31 December 2027 ·
Eligible households: Singaporean and Permanent Resident HDB households ·
How to claim: Online via Singpass at go.gov.sg/cv-claim ·
Cash conversion: Not allowed – vouchers are non-transferable and non-refundable

Detail Value
Program name Climate Vouchers (Climate Friendly Households Programme)
Total value per household $400 ($300 + $100)
Claim period 15 April 2025 to 31 December 2027
Eligibility Singaporean and PR HDB households
How to claim Online via Singpass at go.gov.sg/cv-claim
Cash conversion Not allowed

The pattern: the program delivers a clear benefit with equally clear boundaries — no cash, no transfers, and a fixed three-year window.

When can I claim a climate voucher in 2025?

Claim start date for $100 voucher

  • The $100 additional climate voucher opens for claim on 15 April 2025 for HDB households (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Only one household member needs to claim on behalf of the entire household (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Multiple families living at the same registered address share one set of vouchers (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

Claim period for $300 voucher

  • The $300 general climate voucher is already available for all eligible Singaporean and PR HDB households until 31 December 2027 (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Eligibility requires both Singaporean or Permanent Resident status and residence in an HDB flat (MoneySmart Singapore).
The catch

The $300 voucher is open now, but the $100 top-up doesn’t start until April 2025. If you claim only the $300 today, you’ll need to return to the portal next year for the additional $100.

The implication: households can spread their claims across two separate visits, but the total $400 window is the same — both expire on 31 December 2027.

How do I redeem my climate voucher?

Step 1: Log in with Singpass

  • Visit signup.redeem.gov.sg to begin the claim process (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Use your Singpass account to authenticate — this is the only way to claim (MoneySmart Singapore).
  • If you don’t have a Singpass, visit go.gov.sg/cv-claim for alternative arrangements (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

Step 2: Choose $300 or $100 voucher

  • Select which voucher to claim — either the $300 general voucher or the $100 HDB top-up voucher (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Each eligible household can claim one set of each (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

Step 3: Receive unique voucher link

  • After claiming, you’ll receive an SMS from gov.sg containing a unique voucher link (Climate Friendly Households FAQ).
  • The link starts with https://voucher.redeem.gov.sg/ — do not click links with unfamiliar prefixes (MoneySmart Singapore).
  • NEA, PUB and RedeemSG will never ask for your personal information or banking details via SMS (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
What to watch

Scammers are already targeting voucher programs. The only legitimate voucher links begin with https://voucher.redeem.gov.sg/. If you receive an SMS with a different prefix, do not click — report it.

The pattern: the official process is entirely digital and requires Singpass. No paper forms, no in-person queues — but that also means no room for error on security.

Can you convert climate vouchers to cash?

  • Climate vouchers cannot be converted to cash (Climate Friendly Households FAQ).
  • They are non-transferable and non-refundable (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Only usable at participating merchants for eligible energy-efficient products (Dive Deals Singapore).

The trade-off: this is a targeted subsidy designed to shift household spending toward sustainable products, not to supplement household income. If you were hoping to pocket the $400, the program isn’t designed for that.

How do you use climate vouchers?

Eligible products

  • Refrigerators, air conditioners, LED lights, and other energy-efficient appliances (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Water taps and shower fittings that meet water-efficiency standards (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Cannot be used for services, installation costs, or non-listed items (Dive Deals Singapore).

Participating retailers

  • Vouchers can be used at physical and online retailers listed on the programme website (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Some retailers include Hisense Singapore and other appliance chains (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Vouchers are divisible — you can spend in denominations of $2, $5, $10, and $50 across multiple purchases (Dive Deals Singapore).
  • You may need to present proof of address (NRIC or recent utilities bill) when redeeming at participating retailers (Dive Deals Singapore).

Why this matters: the divisibility of vouchers lets households spread spending across multiple items over time, but the requirement for proof of address at checkout may catch first-time users off guard.

How to withdraw a climate voucher?

Request for printed climate vouchers

  • An alternative to the digital voucher is a printed version, available by request (Climate Friendly Households FAQ).
  • Submit a request via the “Request for Printed Climate Vouchers” form on FormSG (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).
  • Printed vouchers carry the same terms and expiry date as digital ones (Climate Friendly Households FAQ).

The implication: if you’re not comfortable with digital wallets or SMS links, the printed option is your fallback — but you’ll need to plan ahead since it takes processing time.

Timeline

Now (before 15 Apr 2025)

$300 climate voucher available for all eligible households (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

15 April 2025

$100 climate voucher claim opens for HDB households (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

15 April 2025 – 31 December 2027

Both $300 and $100 vouchers can be claimed and spent (Climate Friendly Households Official Portal).

31 December 2027

Climate Voucher programme ends — all vouchers expire (Aspire Lights).

The implication: households have nearly three full years to plan and use their vouchers, but the April 2025 start for the $100 voucher means early birds must wait for the full $400 amount.

Summary

The $400 climate voucher program gives Singaporean and PR HDB households a real incentive to upgrade to energy-efficient appliances, but the rules are specific: the $300 is available now, the $100 arrives in April 2025, and none of it can be turned into cash. For the typical HDB household, the smartest move is to claim the $300 voucher today, plan purchases around eligible products, and set a calendar reminder for 15 April 2025 to grab the additional $100 — or risk leaving money unclaimed when the program closes on 31 December 2027.
