In celebration of National Day, Singaporeans are encouraged to fly the National Flag during the National Day celebrations period, 1 July to 30 September 2022.

  1. Singapore will celebrate its 57th National Day on 9 August 2022. In celebration of National Day, Singaporeans are encouraged to fly the National Flag during the National Day celebrations period, 1 July to 30 September 2022.

  2. During this period, all organisations and households can display the National Flag at their offices, building premises, and residential premises may fly the flag without a flagpole and night illumination.

  3. The Flag, as a national symbol, should be treated with respect, and used in an appropriate and dignified manner. Torn or worn-out Flags should not be displayed, and should be packed into a sealed black trash bag before being disposed of. The full guidelines on the display and use of the

    Flag can be viewed here (opens in new tab)

  4. The Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) is inviting the public to give feedback on the proposed new National Symbols Regulations. This will replace the Singapore Arms and Flag and National Anthem (SAFNA) Rules. The proposals include providing greater flexibility to display the National Flag more freely to celebrate and identify with the nation. Members of the public may share their feedback at www.go.gov.sg/feedbacksafna (opens in new tab)
