Registration and licensing
Singapore divides its statutory registers by profession, and the title decides which one answers. Psychologists are not on a statutory register yet. In May 2026 the Ministry of Health said the Allied Health Professions Council will register psychologists once mandatory registration starts.
A psychiatrist is registered as a doctor with the Singapore Medical Council, whose registration runs in several named types rather than a single status. Nurses answer to the Singapore Nursing Board. Start from the title a practitioner gives you, because a search in the wrong register returns nothing and proves nothing.
Search the registers by name at Singapore Medical Council (SMC) or Singapore Nursing Board (SNB). Check that the name and title match and that the entry is current. If they do not, ask the practitioner why.
Once the scheme starts, the Act will protect the titles clinical, clinical neuropsychology, counselling, educational and forensic psychologist. Counsellors and therapists sit outside it, and the register the profession runs itself is voluntary.
