    Large non-listed companies deferred from FY2027 to FY2030; Scope 3 voluntary until further notice.

    Summary

    Singapore requires ISSB-based climate reporting from listed issuers and later from large non-listed companies (SGD 1bn revenue and SGD 500m assets). In August 2025 the non-listed start was deferred to FY2030 and Scope 3 made voluntary.
