RELATED INFORMATION

  • In Singapore, film companies must indicate the rating of a film before submitting it to IMDA for review. IMDA will then assess the film based on this rating to determine if the judgment is appropriate.
  • If IMDA finds that the film does not match the rating indicated by the film company, it will suggest classification under a more appropriate rating.
  • In 2018, the Government passed a Bill to officially allow industry practitioners and the Government to jointly review and classify audio-visual works. To become an officially qualified reviewer, an industry practitioner must undergo training and pass an exam, and must receive refresher training every year thereafter.
