The Land Intensification Allowance (LIA) scheme for Singapore\u2019s Built Environment sector will be expanded to include qualifying multi-storey Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) facilities, effective from 1 January 2026 until 31 December 2030. The announcement was made by Mr. Desmond Lee, Minister for National Development, during an industry convention on 9 April 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Updates:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Extended Coverage:
    The LIA scheme, currently applicable to Integrated Construction and Prefabrication Hubs (ICPHs), will now extend to multi-storey DfMA facilities<\/em> that demonstrate industrial land optimization through advanced manufacturing processes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Objective:
    The expansion incentivizes adoption of space-efficient industrial solutions, supporting Singapore\u2019s land productivity goals. DfMA facilities enable off-site production of building components, reducing on-site construction time and footprint.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Current Scheme Scope:
    Existing LIA provisions cover Integrated Construction and Prefabrication Hubs (ICPHs)\u2014multi-storey, highly automated facilities producing prefabricated precast concrete components. The extension acknowledges evolving off-site construction methodologies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Implementation Timeline:
    Qualifying investments in DfMA infrastructure will be eligible for tax allowances under LIA from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2030.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Ministerial Emphasis:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    “This expansion ensures our policies keep pace with industrial innovation. By rewarding land-efficient DfMA facilities, we accelerate the Built Environment sector\u2019s transformation while maximizing scarce land resources,” stated Minister Lee.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
