Advice on Accommodation

Property Rental
Where you rent a complete vacant property, furnished or unfurnished. This is ideal if you arrive in Singapore and are willing to move in with friends or other students. This accommodation choice is best made after your arrival in Singapore only as it may take a few days before you move in. It makes sense to form a group of those willing to take up a whole unit and then view options at hand.
Room Rental
where you take a room at a property Where other people already live. You may be living with students, families or others who live nearby and have a spare room. Property rental or share housing can be furnished or unfurnished.
Homestay
Where you generally live with a family and meals are provided. This option is always furnished

Electronic Change of Residential Address (eCOA)

Electronic Change of Residential Address (eCOA)

We wish to inform that ICA has an upcoming change to the Update of Address portal in our eService for Student’s Pass application (also known as SOLAR+).

 

With effect from 27 Mar 2023, there will be a portal migration from current eUpdate of Address to a new portal called Electronic Change of Residential Address (eCOA).   Authorised School Users can continue to access this new eCOA portal via our STP eService.  Schools will also make use of the eCOA portal to assist their registered students to update any changes of residential address.

 

With the onboarding to the new eCOA portal, there are additional steps below to authenticate the validity of the new address provided:

  • After keying in the new address of the STP holders in eCOA, there will be a 6-digit PIN mailer posted to the new address.
  • Once the PIN mailer has been received, there is a need to key in the 6-digit PIN into eCOA to confirm the change in address.
  • Upon successful validation, the STP holders’ residential address will be updated accordingly and reflected in their digital STP.
  • A copy of the new work flow on change of address is enclosed.

 

In addition, Students, who have SingPass account, they can self-service and report any change of address in the new eCOA portal.  Their family or friends who have valid SingPass account, can also update change of address on the students’ behalf using this new portal.  We would like to reiterate that it is a legal requirement for the STP holder to report any change in his/her place of residence within 14 days of the change.
