In Singapore, subdividing a shophouse (which has a commercial level and residential levels) into multiple lot numbers involves several steps and considerations. Here’s a general overview:
### Subdivision of Shophouse
1. **Check Zoning and Land Use Regulations**:
- **URBAN REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (URA)**: Verify with the URA if the zoning of your property allows for subdivision and if there are any specific conditions or restrictions.
2. **Building Plan Approval**:
- **Building and Construction Authority (BCA)**: You’ll need to submit building plans for approval if you’re making structural changes to subdivide the property. Engage a qualified architect or structural engineer to prepare the necessary plans and documents.
3. **Land Titles**:
- **Singapore Land Authority (SLA)**: The SLA will need to approve the subdivision of land titles. You will have to apply for the division of land titles if you wish to create separate lot numbers.
4. **Application and Charges**:
- **Fees**: The costs involved typically include:
- **Professional Fees**: Architect and structural engineer fees for preparing plans.
- **Application Fees**: Fees for submitting applications to URA, BCA, and SLA.
- **Legal Fees**: Costs for legal services related to the subdivision of land titles.
- **Land Title Fees**: Charges for the issuance of new land titles.
5. **Compliance with Building Code**:
- **Safety and Building Code**: Ensure that the subdivided units comply with the Building Code and other safety regulations. This may involve making modifications or upgrades to meet safety and habitability standards.
6. **Management Corporation**:
- **Strata Management**: If the shophouse is part of a strata development, you may need to consult the Management Corporation (MCST) and follow its rules and procedures.
### General Steps
1. **Consult Professionals**: Engage an architect, structural engineer, and legal advisor to guide you through the process.
2. **Submit Applications**: Apply to the relevant authorities for necessary approvals.
3. **Follow Regulations**: Ensure compliance with all building, safety, and zoning regulations.
**Recommendation**: For accurate costs and specific procedures, consult with a property management expert or legal advisor who specializes in real estate and land development in Singapore. They can provide detailed information tailored to your situation and assist you in navigating the regulatory requirements.
