Professional Registration For Nurses

Nurses, midwives and Advanced Practice Nurses are required to have a valid practising certificate issued by the Singapore Nursing Board (SNB) to practice nursing or midwifery in Singapore.

The SNB is a statutory board established under the Nurses and Midwives Act (Chapter 209) to register and enrol nurses, register midwives and certify Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs). It also regulates the standards of education, professional conduct and ethics, and scope of practice of nurses and registered midwives in Singapore.
