Film Classification Under the Films Act 1981, films and videos have to be classified before they can be publicly exhibited or distributed in Singapore. We will have to submit the film intended to distribute in Singapore for classification before it is made available to the general public, unless it falls within the exemption categories as described below and does not contain impermissible content. Types of Film Distribution Licenses and Validity There are two types of film distribution licenses required for the film distribution in Singapore depending on the classification of the respective films by the IMDA: (i) class licensing for the distribution of films rated G, PG and PG13; or (ii) film distribution (restricted) license for the distribution of films rated NC16 and M18. Class License The Films (Class License for General Films Distribution) Order 2021 provides that distributors of films that the IMDA has rated G, PG or PG13 are automatically class -licensedand must comply with the class license conditions. The class license applies only to the distribution of films that have been assigned G, PG or PG13 classification ratings and excludes video games. The validity of a class license that has been granted by the IMDA is perpetual until the film distribution business ceases or if the IMDA cancels the license. Film Distribution (Restricted) Licence Distributors of films that the IMDA has rated NC16 or M18 must apply for a Film Distribution (Restricted) Licence. Each license covers all distribution points or locations owned by the same business. The validity of a Restricted Licence that had been granted by the IMDA is either for a period of one or three years depending on the license applied for, or 30 days for a temporary license. Exemptions from licensing Pursuant to the Films (Licence — Exemption) Notification 2019 and the Films (Licence — Exemption) (Amendment) Notification
