The enhanced benefits are part of changes to the savings and retirement scheme for SAF officers.

SINGAPORE – Singapore Armed Forces officers can look forward to enhanced monetary benefits from July 1, 2025, following changes to the organisation’s savings and retirement scheme.

First, bonus cash payments will be given to officers aged between 25 and 34 for every three years of service. Known as the Saver Bonus payment, this is aimed at better supporting officers’ needs, such as in marriage and housing. Currently, officers are on a reduced CPF contribution arrangement, where Mindef deposits the difference between the full and reduced employer CPF contributions into the officers’ CPF Top-Up Accounts. The monies in these accounts are transferred to the officers via their CPF accounts when they leave the SAF.
