Media classifications in Singapore

All forms of media, including films, TV programs, video games, and theatrical productions, must receive an age classification before widespread distribution.

Prior to June 1991, works are either passed, censored or banned from publishing as its media classification does not exist back then.

[2] There are classification systems for the following types of media: films, TV programs, video games, and arts entertainment (e.g., theatrical productions).

Many films that the IMDA refused to classify were restricted because of concerns that they might "undermine the public order".

Games only need to be classified if they are physically sold in Singapore - however, some digital storefronts like Steam may display the IMDA rating to Singaporean users if one is present.
