Hi! Yes, if you’re a Singapore PR buying a resale HDB and you’re liable for ABSD, you can use your CPF Ordinary Account to pay for the ABSD—but only after you’ve paid the stamp duty in cash first. After that, you can apply for a reimbursement from CPF, subject to their approval.

If you’d like help planning your purchase or calculating the costs involved, feel free to reach out.

Good day to you.

A Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR) purchasing a resale HDB flat (their initial residential property) can utilize their CPF Ordinary Account (OA) to pay for the 5% Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD), but you will likely need to make the payment in cash initially and then request a reimbursement from your CPF OA. It is essential to have enough funds in your CPF OA to cover the ABSD, after catering funds for BSD. If your CPF OA balance is inadequate, any remaining amount must be settled in cash.

Your CPF savings can be used to pay the stamp duty and survey fees. However, monthly service and conservancy charges, along with other charges related to the use of the property, including taxes, cannot be paid with your CPF savings.

As stamp duty is payable within 14 days from the date of the sale and purchase agreement or the date of acceptance of the option to purchase, you may need to use cash to pay the stamp duty first.

Subsequently, you can apply for a one-time reimbursement from your CPF account together with your application to use your CPF savings to buy a property.

Note you should apply for the one-time reimbursement of stamp duty and CPF lump sum drawdown on completion at the same time.

If you are taking an HDB loan, it is important to check with HDB on your eligibility to apply for a one-time reimbursement of stamp duty from your CPF account.
