Deadline:      The deadline for claim submissions will be advised by SMF (approx. within 1-2 months of programme completion). Claims will be processed within 2 months from SMF’s submission deadline, or date of submission of complete set of documents by companies, whichever is later if all supporting documents and claim form are in order.

Currency Conversion

  • If the currency has been converted to SGD at point of payment (supported by bank statement/credit card statement, invoices, etc.), please use the SGD amount indicated in the document.  Reimbursement will be made based on the SGD amount indicated in the document.
  • If the currency has not been converted to SGD at point of payment (e.g. receipt issued by hotel in local currency), please use the XE Currency Converter to obtain the conversion rate on the day the cost was incurred, and convert the amount to SGD.  Please also submit a screenshot of the conversion rate used, as supporting document during the claims submission.
  • Only rates published on XE Currency Converter are accepted if the payment document does not show payment in SGD.
