LTA proposes combining car COE categories, adding rebate-surcharge system
New system would combine Categories A and B, and see rebates or surcharges of up to S$15,000 on premiums
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is considering merging two categories of passenger car Certificate of Entitlement (COE) in Singapore, while introducing a rebate or surcharge system based on car value. This proposal comes alongside a public consultation that will run until November 2, seeking input on the changes. LTA's COE categorisation framework is being reviewed as vehicle technology and the market evolve, and the regulator is inviting feedback on the proposed changes.
The consultation is part of a larger review process, with findings and recommendations expected by the first half of 2027.
