Singapore mandates SAF usage for flights departing from 2026

Singapore’s Civil Aviation Authority announced that flights departing from Singapore will be mandated to utilize sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) starting in 2026, with a target of a 1% uplift in 2026 and potential plans to increase it to 3%-5% by 2030. 

“We have consulted key stakeholders and assess that the cost impact of the 1% target is manageable. This will provide an important demand signal to fuel producers and give them the incentive to invest in new SAF production facilities,” Singapore’s Transport Minister Chee Hong Tat said at the Changi Aviation Summit.
