Buying a shophouse in Geylang: common questions

Can foreigners buy a shophouse in Geylang?

Yes, if the shophouse is approved for full commercial use. Shophouses with a residential component are restricted property, and foreign buyers generally need government approval. We check the approved use of every property before you commit.

Is ABSD payable on Geylang shophouses?

No. Full commercial shophouses carry no Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty (ABSD) and no Seller's Stamp Duty. Buyer's Stamp Duty still applies, and GST may be payable if the seller is GST-registered. If part of the building is residential, ABSD may apply to that part.

What can a Geylang shophouse be used for?

F&B, retail, offices and other commercial uses. We check the approved use for every property.
