Funeral Guide

How much does a funeral cost in Singapore?

Funeral costs vary by faith and by the type of service you choose. This guide lays out the real, transparent numbers, so you can plan with a clear head.

A guide for families

What shapes the cost of a funeral

Funeral costs in Singapore depend on the type of service, venue and optional additions you choose. This guide covers what Ang Brothers charges and what to check before committing.

The final quote depends on whether there is a wake, the venue, the number of days and the arrangements your family chooses. Compare two quotes using your own figures.

What an Ang Brothers package includes

Ask for an itemised quote for the exact package, venue and dates you are considering.

Compare three lines in each quote before you decide.

  1. Included package items. Check collection, casket and transport. If you are holding a wake, also check the setup, rites and number of days.
  2. Required charges paid separately. Ask which venue or facility fees apply and who bills them. The two offers above include the Mandai cremation fee.
  3. Optional extras. Ask what catering, additional chanting, upgraded furnishings or a longer wake would cost before you agree to them.

For more questions to ask, see the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore’s funeral checklist.

See the full breakdown for your chosen package on our packages page, or simply call and we will walk you through it line by line.

Add the package price, confirmed separate charges and selected extras for each quote. Leave unconfirmed amounts blank. Enter zero only if there is no separate charge. Confirm the final amount with each provider.
