All about the Singapore Dollar

Singapore notes and coins

Current everyday banknotes come in S$2, S$5, S$10, S$50, and S$100 denominations. Singapore's Portrait Series notes feature Encik Yusof bin Ishak, Singapore's first President, on the front of every denomination, with different themes from his life on the reverse.

For coins, you have 5 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, and the S$1 coin — handy for MRT rides, hawker centres, and everything in between.

Worth noting: the S$1,000 and S$10,000 notes have been discontinued and are no longer issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, though they remain legal tender. The S$10,000 note was discontinued in 2014 and the S$1,000 in 2021, both as anti-money laundering measures.

Fun facts about Singapore banknotes

The S$5 note celebrates the Tembusu tree, a beloved landmark in the Singapore Botanic Gardens that has stood since 1859. The same tree inspired the design when the Portrait Series was launched in 1999.
The entire lyrics of Singapore's national anthem, Majulah Singapura, are printed in microtext on the back of the S$1,000 Portrait Series note — so small you need a magnifying glass to read them.
During World War II, Singapore used "banana money" issued by the Japanese occupation forces. The nickname came from the banana tree featured on the notes. The currency became worthless after the war, wiping out many people's savings.
Singapore's polymer banknotes last three to four times longer than paper notes and can survive a spin in the washing machine — useful in Singapore's tropical humidity.
The Brunei Dollar and Singapore Dollar are accepted interchangeably at par in both countries under a formal Currency Interchangeability Agreement, the only such arrangement between two countries in Asia.

Travel Money Trivia — Singapore edition

The Singapore Dollar was officially introduced on 12 June 1967, replacing the Malaya and British Borneo dollar — not the Malaysian Ringgit, despite common misconception. It initially exchanged at par with the Malaysian Ringgit before Singapore developed its own independent monetary policy.
Singapore is one of the few countries in the world that manages monetary policy through the exchange rate rather than interest rates, contributing to the SGD's reputation for stability.
The S$10,000 note was once the world's highest-value banknote in terms of purchasing power. It was discontinued in 2014 to reduce money laundering risks.

What is the currency of Singapore?
The official currency of Singapore is the Singapore Dollar, abbreviated as SGD and symbolised as S$. It's been Singapore's currency since 1967 and is used for all transactions throughout the country.
Current everyday banknotes come in S$2, S$5, S$10, S$50, and S$100 denominations. Coins come in 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c, and S$1. The S$1,000 and S$10,000 notes have been discontinued and are no longer in general circulation.
What is the best currency to use in Singapore?
Singapore Dollars are the best currency to use in Singapore. While some tourist businesses accept major foreign currencies, you'll get the best value paying in SGD.
Singapore is one of the most cashless-friendly cities in the world. Cards and contactless payments are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, and major attractions. However, cash remains important for:
- Hawker centres and food courts
- Wet markets and local shops
- Some taxis and ride services
- Smaller local businesses
Most travellers use a mix of Singapore Dollars for food and local spending, and a card for larger purchases.

What is the best place to buy Singapore Dollars in Australia?
A dedicated foreign currency specialist will almost always offer a better deal than a bank, post office, or airport exchange. Here's how the options compare:
- Banks typically charge transaction fees on top of a less competitive rate.
- Post offices offer limited currency options and variable rates.
- Airport exchanges are the most expensive option. Buy before you travel, not after you land.

Is it better to buy Singapore Dollars in Australia or Singapore?
It's almost always better to buy Singapore Dollars in Australia before you travel. Airport exchanges at Changi Airport and tourist-area money changers typically offer less favourable rates and higher fees. Sorting your SGD before you leave also means you arrive financially prepared, with cash ready for transport, hawker centres, and tips from the moment you land.

What affects the AUD to SGD exchange rate?
The AUD to SGD exchange rate is influenced by a range of economic factors, including:
- Singapore's monetary policy, which is managed through the exchange rate rather than interest rates, making SGD movements more deliberate and stable than many other currencies
- Interest rate decisions by the Reserve Bank of Australia
- Global trade flows, as Singapore is a major regional trading and financial hub
- Commodity prices, particularly for Australian mineral and agricultural exports
- Broader risk sentiment in Asian financial markets
Rates change daily, so it's worth checking the live AUD to SGD rate above before you buy.
How do I convert leftover Singapore Dollars back to AUD?
How much spending money do I need for Singapore?
Singapore is one of the more expensive destinations in Asia, broadly comparable to Australian cities in cost. As a rough guide:
- Budget travellers staying in hostels and eating at hawker centres typically spend AUD $80–$120 per day.
- Mid-range travellers average AUD $150–$220 per day once accommodation, restaurant dining, and activities are factored in.
- Singapore's attraction costs vary widely. Universal Studios, the Singapore Zoo, and Gardens by the Bay all have entrance fees worth budgeting separately.
Worth noting: tipping is not standard practice in Singapore. A service charge (typically 10%) is added to bills at restaurants and hotels. No additional tip is expected.
