Schemes untracked

If you worked in Singapore and moved on, changed employers, or lost the paperwork years ago, you are in the right place. Pensions are rarely gone. Most of the time the scheme simply lost track of you.

Why Singapore pensions go missing, and what a Pension Identification Report finds

Singapore's central system, CPF, does not cover work pass holders, so most foreign professionals who worked here were never in it. What they were often in is a private employer scheme, held by an insurer, fund manager, or trustee, and there is no central register that lists those. When the posting ends, the scheme stays behind with the employer and the paperwork goes quiet.

A PensionHunter Pension Identification Report works from what you already know, employer names and rough dates, and identifies the schemes, administrators and administrators your Singapore work history points to. One fixed fee, one clear picture, and a refund if we find nothing material.

What we search

  • Private occupational pension schemes
  • Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS) accounts
  • Foreign employer pension arrangements
  • Group insurance and retirement benefits with former employers

Singapore expat pension contributions

Many Singapore expat packages included private pension contributions that are completely separate from CPF. These are held by insurance companies, fund managers and trustees, and are very frequently forgotten when expats move on.

What your Pension Identification Report delivers

Nobody sits between you and your pension. You act the moment the evidence lands.

Your position with CPF (the Central Provident Fund), and how to reach it from abroad

For Singapore, there is one national fund (CPF (the Central Provident Fund)). Your Pension Identification Report confirms your position, the deadlines that affect it, and the sourced route to reach your record from abroad.

Or do it yourself, here's what that takes

Doing it yourself

Means working through all of this:

  • Tracking down employers that merged, rebranded, or wound up
  • Navigating CPF and private/SRS schemes separately
  • Writing to each provider and waiting weeks for replies
  • Working out which entitlements you actually have, in Singapore's system

What we do

Human experts + AI, fixed fee:

  • Registry searches across the public systems that apply to you (Country Pension Identification Report)
  • Employer tracing through decades of corporate change (Country Pension Identification Report)
  • A written shortlist of the schemes most likely to hold your entitlement, pay $99, see findings, then decide (refunded if nothing material)
  • Decide after the Pension Identification Report: act on the shortlist yourself, or go further. Search, $499: a complete request pack for every fund we identify, written in your voice and ready to send, within five working days of your intake form. Global, $799: the same across every country you worked in, up to all 41 we cover, within ten working days.

Identification only. We do not claim, transfer, negotiate, or make decisions regarding any pension.

Verified country facts

Every line below is drawn from the verified country dossier. We never fabricate facts; candidate items are gated out of customer-facing copy.

Why it matters

CPF accounts of all non-SC/non-PR members were auto-closed from April 2024; closed-account money earns only concession interest until 31 March 2027, then nothing, but it is never escheated and stays claimable indefinitely (Form CPF-CA).

If you do nothing

A dormant ex-PR pot sits at concession interest until 31 Mar 2027, then at zero yield; it is never escheated and remains claimable with no time limit, but it stops growing.

Deadlines that matter in Singapore

  • Interest cliff: 31 March 2027, closed-account money earns concession interest until then, nothing after (the actionable date for every dormant ex-resident account)
  • Claim deadline: NONE on claiming closed-account or Public-Trustee money (official)
  • CPF interest on closed accounts: Savings left in CPF accounts closed under the 2024 rules earn bank-rate interest until 31 March 2027 and no interest after that date. The savings stay claimable at any time, with no deadline.Official source, checked 21 August 2026
  • Claim by post from abroad: The full claim can be completed from outside Singapore by post using Form CPF-CA, with identity documents notarised and apostilled.Official source, checked 21 August 2026

How records are reached

Personal-record access wall: Singpass

For citizens and PRs, provider identity is trivial, CPF is the single fund, and unclaimedmonies.gov.sg is an official cross-government register. The structural point most foreigners do not realise: work-pass holders are not in CPF at all, so the question for them is not "where is my CPF" but whether any private supplementary scheme (SRS) was set up.

From abroad: Without Singpass and without a Singapore bank account, there is no remote authentication path, an in-person appointment at a Singapore Overseas Mission is the official requirement, which is the single biggest cross-border friction in this market.

Questions people ask before they start

Does this cover CPF?

Our focus is on private occupational schemes and SRS accounts that are often overlooked outside the CPF system.

I was on an Employment Pass, do I have a pension?

Many EP holders had employer pension contributions to private schemes. We trace these.

Can I claim from overseas?

Yes. Our research covers all relevant registries regardless of where you live.

How do you find private pension schemes?

Our researchers trace employer records, insurance company databases, and fund manager registries.

How do I find a forgotten pension in Singapore?

To find a forgotten pension in Singapore, you need to trace private employer pension schemes, supplementary retirement arrangements and any CPF contributions made during your employment. For expats who have left Singapore, accessing these records remotely is difficult. PensionHunter searches employer records and private pension scheme registries to identify what's likely held in your name; at Enhanced Pension Identification Report ($499) and Global Pension Identification Report ($799), we prepare a complete request pack for each fund we identify, written and ready to send under your signed Information Request Authority (IRA). Country Pension Identification Report ($99) is identification-only and does not require an IRA.
