Frequently asked questions
About this specific SSIC code and the Food & Beverage sector
Do I need a licence from the Singapore Food Agency?
Most food processing, manufacturing, and retail activities require a licence from the Singapore Food Agency (SFA). The exact licence type depends on whether you import, process, store, or sell food products.
What hygiene and safety standards apply?
SFA enforces food hygiene regulations, including the Environmental Public Health (Food Hygiene) Regulations. Premises must meet layout, sanitation, and temperature-control requirements.
Is halal certification relevant under this code?
Halal certification by MUIS (Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura) is voluntary but often essential for businesses serving halal-conscious markets. It is separate from the SSIC classification itself.
What traceability obligations exist for food imports?
SFA requires traceability records for imported food. Importers must register with SFA and maintain records of source, batch, and distribution for each consignment.
What is SSIC and why does it matter?
The Singapore Standard Industrial Classification (SSIC) is the national system for categorising business activities. It is mandatory at ACRA registration and is used by IRAS, MOM, and other government agencies for tax, licensing, statistical, and policy purposes.
Do I need to register with this SSIC code?
Every business entity registered with ACRA must select at least one SSIC code that best describes its principal economic activity. You can declare up to two codes — one primary and one secondary — via BizFile+.
What international standard does SSIC map to?
SSIC 2025 is aligned with the UN International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC) Rev. 5. Each SSIC code maps to one or more ISIC Rev. 5 classes, making Singapore business data internationally comparable.
Can I hold more than one SSIC code at the same time?
Yes. ACRA allows one primary SSIC code and one secondary SSIC code per registered entity. If your business spans multiple distinct activities, choose the code that generates the highest share of revenue as primary.
How do I change my registered SSIC code?
You can update your SSIC code through BizFile+ by filing a "Change in Business Activity" transaction. Changes take effect upon ACRA approval. IRAS and other agencies should also be notified if the change affects tax classification.
