CDC vouchers expire on 31 December 2026: use them before they're gone

The S$300 January 2026 CDC vouchers lapse on 31 December. Check your balance, then spend the heartland half on things you'd buy anyway: LED lights, switches, the top-up on a new fan.

CDC vouchers expire on 31 December 2026: calendar showing 31 December and the CDC Voucher logo
The January 2026 CDC vouchers lapse at the end of 31 December 2026.

Your S$300 CDC vouchers from January 2026 expire on 31 December 2026. After that date, whatever is left is gone. No extension, no carry-over. If you still have a balance sitting in your phone, now is the time to use it, not the last week of December when every queue in the heartlands is long.

The short version: S$300 per household, half for heartland shops and hawkers, half for supermarkets. Valid until 31 December 2026. Check your balance at go.gov.sg/cdcv with Singpass. The heartland half works at our counter.

Step one: check what you have left

  1. Go to go.gov.sg/cdcv and log in with Singpass. If someone else in your household claimed the vouchers, ask them to share the link.
  2. Look at the heartland balance separately from the supermarket balance. They are two different pots.
  3. If the heartland balance is above zero, that is money you can spend at neighbourhood shops like ours until 31 December.

Worth spending it on: things you would buy anyway

The worst way to use an expiring voucher is on something you don't need. The best way is on things that would come out of your pocket sooner or later. At an electrical shop, that list is longer than people think:

LED ceiling lights on the wall of Hai Guan Seng, Schneider switches and sockets, and a DC ceiling fan
  • LED bulbs and downlights. That one flickering kitchen light you keep ignoring. Swapping old fittings to LED also cuts the bill.
  • Switches and sockets. Cracked or yellowed switch plates, a loose socket. Cheap to replace, annoying to live with.
  • The top-up on a new fan. The S$400 Climate Voucher pays for an eligible DC fan. If the fan you want costs more, CDC vouchers can pay the difference. A S$450 fan becomes S$400 Climate plus S$50 CDC.
  • A second fan. Climate Voucher on one, CDC vouchers toward the other.
  • Stocking up on the boring stuff: spare bulbs, extension sockets, batteries for the remote.

Stacking with the Climate Voucher

CDC VoucherNEA Climate Voucher

Both accepted at our counter, on the same bill.

The NEA Climate Voucher (S$400, valid until 31 December 2027) and the CDC vouchers can go on the same bill. At our counter we scan them in order: Climate Voucher first on the eligible DC fan, then CDC vouchers on the rest, then PayNow, card or cash for anything left over. You don't need to split it into separate trips.

Here's what that looks like on a few fans just above S$400:

Not sure which fans the Climate Voucher covers? Our voucher fans guide goes type by type, and the ceiling fan price list shows which ones cost S$400 or less.

Don't leave it to the last week

Every December, people remember their vouchers around Christmas. Shops get crowded, popular fan colours run out, and the vouchers you meant to use quietly expire on the 31st. If you are planning a bigger buy, like a new fan before Chinese New Year, sort it out in November or early December. Our before-CNY fan guide has the timeline.

Voucher dates are from the CDC Vouchers Scheme page (cdc.gov.sg, updated 4 September 2026): the CDC Vouchers Scheme 2026 (January) is valid till 31 December 2026. Climate Voucher dates are from NEA's Climate Friendly Households Programme. Always check your own balance on RedeemSG.

CDC voucher questions

When do the 2026 CDC vouchers expire?

The S$300 CDC Vouchers from January 2026 are valid until 31 December 2026. After that, whatever is left is gone. It doesn't roll over.

How do I check how much CDC voucher I have left?

Open your voucher link (go.gov.sg/cdcv, log in with Singpass). The balance for the heartland half and the supermarket half shows on the voucher page. Check it now, not on 30 December.

Can I use CDC vouchers at Hai Guan Seng?

Yes, the heartland half. We are a participating heartland merchant at 31 Kelantan Lane, Jalan Besar. You show the QR at the counter and we scan it. The supermarket half only works at supermarkets.

Can I use CDC vouchers and the Climate Voucher together?

Yes, on the same bill. On an eligible DC fan, the S$400 Climate Voucher goes first, then CDC vouchers on the rest of what you are buying.

Can I use CDC vouchers online?

No. CDC vouchers are scanned in person at the merchant. You can still browse and reserve on our website or WhatsApp, then pay with the voucher when you come down.

Sorted? If not, ask the counter.
