From 1 May 2018, the occupancy cap for 4-room and larger HDB flats being rented out will be reduced to six persons, from the current maximum of nine persons. The cap for 3-room and smaller flats remains unchanged at 6 persons and 4 persons respectively. All flat owners must also obtain HDB’s prior approval before renting out their flats or bedrooms. The changes seek to minimise disamenities caused by overcrowding, and to maintain a conducive living environment in our public housing estates.
