TradeFIRST

Singapore-specific

Trade Facilitation and Integrated Risk-based System

The Singapore Customs framework that assesses a company and decides which customs schemes and facilitation it can get.

In practice

A single assessment covers eligibility for licensed warehouses, zero-GST warehouses, the Secure Trade Partnership, and other schemes. Companies are banded from Basic to Premium; higher bands get more facilitation and fewer checks.

Seen in the wild

We need Standard-Plus band under TradeFIRST before applying for a ZG warehouse licence.
