SINGAPORE - Male Singapore Citizens and Singapore Permanent Residents born between Oct 1, 2000, and Jan 1, 2001, can register for national service in November this year.

Registration starts on Nov 1, with the last day of registration falling on Nov 21.

There are two options for registration: Online at http://www.ns.sg or in person at the Central Manpower Base Podium at 3 Depot Road.

Any registrant who chooses to register in person must take with him his National Registration Identity Card or Birth Certificate; Education Certificates; Citizenship Certificates, if any; and other documents specified in the registration notice.

Registrants can apply to postpone reporting for enlistment in order to complete their studies in Singapore.

They can do so either online or in person.

If successful in his application for postponement, the registrant will receive further notice as to when he must report for enlistment.

All other registrants who do not meet the postponement criteria, or are unsuccessful in applying for it, must register and appoint a date between Dec 27 this year and Feb 18 next year for their medical screening, and be present for it on the appointed date.

Those with questions may send an e-mail to contact@ns.sg or call NS eServices at 1800-3676-767.
