Published by Singapore Department of Statistics. 5 records. Fields include Data Series, 2025, 2024, 2023 (59 columns in total). Covers 1968-01-01 to 2025-12-31. Last updated 2026-09-14.

Description

Annual fire occurrence counts in Singapore from 1968 through 2025, sourced from the Singapore Civil Defence Force via SingStat. From 2019, minor fires such as rubbish-bin and chute incidents are excluded, so pre- and post-2019 figures are not directly comparable. Safety researchers track long-run fire incidence with that break in mind. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder TS/M890181.

Official description

Source: SINGAPORE CIVIL DEFENCE FORCE Data Last Updated: 02/03/2026 Update Frequency: Annual Footnotes: From 2019, data exclude fire incidents involving minor fires such as fires involving rubbish bins and rubbish chutes which are of a very low risk relative to other fires. The exclusion of such fires provides a more accurate state of fire safety in Singapore as the data are not being inflated by incidents of low severity. Hence, data on fire occurrences before and from 2019 are not directly comparable. Adapted from: https://tablebuilder.singstat.gov.sg/table/TS/M890181
