Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between custody and care & control in Singapore?

Custody refers to decision-making authority (e.g., education, healthcare), while care and control refers to who the child lives with on a day-to-day basis.

Can both parents get custody of a child?

Yes. Courts in Singapore often grant joint custody, with care and control awarded to one parent and access to the other.

Can custody or access arrangements be changed later?

Yes, if there is a material change in circumstances, you can apply to vary the existing court order.

What if the other parent denies access despite court orders?

Legal action can be taken to enforce access rights, including applications for enforcement orders or penalties.
