Frequently Asked Question

Who can apply for MultiGen Protect?

Singapore Residents who are at least 18 years old can apply for MultiGen Protect. The applicant can then protect up to 6 adults and seniors, and 4 children under the MultiGen Protect policy.

However, if the applicant would also like to cover himself under MultiGen Protect, he needs to fulfil the eligibility criteria of either an adult or senior insured person.

Singapore Resident means Singapore citizen, Singapore permanent resident, or holder of a valid work permit, employment pass, long-term visit pass, dependant's pass, S Pass or student pass issued by the authorities in Singapore.

Why is there a distinction between adult, senior and child under MultiGen Protect?

We recognise that adults, seniors and children have different protection needs. Therefore, each generation has their own set of benefits and sum insured amounts, tailored to best suit their requirements.

What are the eligibility criteria and maximum renewal age for insured persons under MultiGen Protect?

All insured persons must be Singapore Residents, and be either the applicant, applicant’s partner, parent, parent-in-law, grandparent, grandparent-in-law, child or grandchild. Depending on their age, each insured person will be protected under the benefits of the following generation categories:
