Regional Competition: Singapore Opens "Elective Egg Freezing" to International Patients to Boost Medical Tourism
【Abstract】: (Policy Update) The Ministry of Health in Singapore has announced an amendment to the Assisted Reproduction Services Regulations, effective immediately. The new rule permits international visitors (non-residents) to undergo elective egg freezing (social freezing) at licensed private centers, a privilege previously reserved for residents with medical indications.
Business Insight: Singapore is aggressively pivoting to capture the high-end Asian market, challenging Thailand and Japan. With its reputation for strict quality control and legal stability, Singapore attracts the "Premium Segment" of Chinese single women. Agencies should update their portfolios to include Singapore as a "Gold Standard" option for fertility preservation.
