Make a CPF nomination

Update or change your CPF nomination

You should review your CPF nomination to keep it relevant with your current circumstances.

• getting married (this revokes any CPF nomination you made before)
  
• getting divorced
  
• having a child
  
• if the nominee named in your CPF nomination dies

To update or change your nomination, you can:

• submit a new CPF nomination form online
  
• visit any CPF service centre to complete and submit a new CPF nomination form

Your new CPF nomination will replace the earlier CPF nomination you have made.
