A practical guide to Mandai Crematorium, Mandai North Crematorium and the NEA-managed columbarium in Singapore. This covers what to know before arriving: the two facilities, visiting hours, booking hours and how to find a niche.

Guide reviewed 1 November 2026.

Two crematoriums, two addresses

Singapore has two crematoriums at Mandai, both managed by the National Environment Agency (NEA). They are separate premises at different addresses.

Confirm the exact facility and hall with the family or funeral director before travelling. Check the facility name and hall on the family’s notice before setting off.

Columbarium visiting hours

The NEA-managed Mandai Columbarium is at 300 Mandai Road, Singapore 779393 (the same grounds as Mandai Crematorium).

  • Visiting hours: 8.00 am to 5.30 pm daily.
  • An official map and photos are on the NEA columbaria page.

These are visitor hours for the columbarium grounds. Booking counter hours for cremation and niche services are different (below).

NEA booking and service counter hours

The following are NEA published booking hours, separate from the columbarium visiting hours above.

  • Cremation bookings: daily, 8.30 am to 4.30 pm (lunch break 1.00 pm to 2.00 pm). Bookings via the NEA ePortal, by phone or at the service counter.
  • Niche bookings: Monday to Friday, 8.30 am to 4.30 pm, closed for lunch from 1.00 pm to 2.00 pm; Saturday, 8.30 am to 12.30 pm. No niche bookings on Sunday. No advance booking of niches.

For cremation permit applications, see the official LifeSG guidance. Submit only one application; contact the Mandai counter for changes or cancellations.

Before you visit: a checklist

  • Confirm the exact facility (Mandai Crematorium or Mandai North), hall number and time from the family or funeral director.
  • For a niche visit, ask the family for the block, level and niche number from their records and use the official NEA map to locate it.
  • Check the NEA columbaria page for any current seasonal access notices before a peak-period visit. Requirements change year to year.
  • For transport directions, NEA links to MyTransport.SG on the Mandai Crematorium page for journey planning.
