Removing defamatory content online in Singapore
First 24 hours

What to do when defamatory content appears

  1. Do not reply in angerPublic replies spread the post further and can be used against you.
  2. Capture the evidenceWe save screenshots, links, dates and account details before anything is deleted.
  3. Report to the platformMost platforms remove false or abusive content that breaks their rules. Under Singapore’s new law, reporting to the platform first is usually required before going to the Online Safety Commission.
  4. Escalate if neededIf the platform does not act within 24 hours, the Online Safety Commission may be able to help, depending on the type of harm.
Singapore law

Defamation law in Singapore, in plain English

Civil defamationBoth individuals and companies can sue over false statements that damage their reputation, under Singapore’s common law and the Defamation Act. Court action is strong but slow and costly.
Protection from Harassment ActGives remedies against false statements of fact, including orders to stop publishing or to correct them, through the Protection from Harassment Court.
Online Safety (Relief and Accountability) Act 2025The Online Safety Commission started on 29 June 2026 with harassment, doxxing, stalking and image abuse. Publication of false material and statements harmful to reputation are being added in later phases. The Commission can order takedowns, give a right of reply and, in some cases, help identify anonymous posters.
Criminal defamationSingapore’s Penal Code also makes defamation a criminal offence in serious cases. That is a matter for the police and your lawyers.

FAQ

Online defamation in Singapore: common questions

How do I remove a defamatory post in Singapore?

Start with the platform’s own reporting process, with evidence. If that fails, Singapore’s harassment and defamation laws, and in some cases the Online Safety Commission, give further routes.

Can I find out who an anonymous poster is?

Sometimes. The Online Safety Commission can, in some cases, obtain identity information from platforms for victims who want to bring a court claim. Courts can also order disclosure.

Can a company sue for defamation in Singapore?

Yes. Companies can bring defamation claims in Singapore, usually where the statement harms their business reputation.
