Elimination of Cheque Collection from 1 October 2023
18 Aug 2023
The Monetary Authority of Singapore and the Association of Banks in Singapore have announced on 28 July 2023 on the timeline for the eventual phasing out of cheques in Singapore1.
To support this national initiative, we will be accelerating our move to phase out cheques for both payments and collections. With e-payments, you can make payments conveniently and be assured that your premium payments will reach us promptly and securely, and you will also receive our payments promptly and avoid the delays associated with cheque payments.
Starting from 1 October 2023, MSIG will eliminate cheque collection. Premium payments to MSIG can be made through the following e-payment methods:
