Office Renovation FSSD Submission

What is FSSD or BCA Submission in Singapore?

Before the commencement of any Office/Commercial/Retail Renovation works, it is a regulation in Singapore to apply for a Renovation permit from the building management, as well as other respective statutory authorities such as FSSD (Fire Safety and Shelter Department) from Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) and BCA (Building and Construction Authority).

SCDF FSSD and BCA Submissions and Approvals from the authorities usually take time and if you are not familiar with the procedures, it may affect your Renovation schedules.

In the worst-case scenario, if any Renovation works do not comply with the FSSD or BCA regulations and general guidelines, it is likely to generate more reworks which you will certainly incur more cost and time!

 

FSSD submission Singapore

 

Fire Safety Shelter Department (FSSD) or Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) is the key authority to be cleared for all renovation and fit-out works.

This applies to various types of units including retail shops, restaurants, kiosks, amenities (e.g. gyms, dance studios), education center (e.g. tuition center, nursery), offices, clinics, etc.

Submission to FSSD or SCDF will be required in various scenarios such as:

 

  • Changes to layout plan of the unit
  • Changes to ownership of a unit
  • Sub-division of tenancy unit or combination of tenancy units
  • Change of use

 

If any of this applies to you, a submission to FSSD/SCDF in Singapore will be required. Despite having that said, there are various types of submissions that are required based on different works. For Example

 

  • If you’re adding a partition to an existing office or retail unit, a Minor Addition & Alteration (MAA) could be done while complying with certain SCDF restrictions.
  • If you’re having a change of use to the existing unit or having partitioning works for a restaurant, a full submission will be required, which will minimally include Building Plan (BP) Submission and an inspection by SCDF Registered Inspector. Should there be changes to the Fire Protection System (FP) or Mechanical Ventilation System (MV), separate submission and inspections will be required. This will grant a Fire Safety Certificate (FSC) after approval from SCDF.

 

As a good guide, MAA submission will take 3 weeks for approval, while Full Submission will take 2 months for approval. However, we strive to improve the quality of our services and ensure approvals are obtained as fast as possible to facilitate your business planning.

     Testimonials

    “Reno360 had done a great job in renovating our apartment at The Peak. We were clueless initially as to what theme, colour scheme and design for our home. They comprehended our lifestyle and delivered the design & renovation based on our preferences and budget. They exceeded our expectations in building the safety aspects in the interior design for our 3 years old boy which we would have simply overlooked!”

    — Ms Esther Lim, The Peak @ Toa Payoh

    “Our retail stall renovation had gone very well with Reno360 Singapore Service. They were friendly, approachable, patient and opened to our suggestions & feedbacks. The overall execution was done perfectly and flawlessly. We will certainly come back to them again if there are more retail outlets to be setup in the island”
