Following the Singapore Government’s announcement on Circuit Breaker measures, the Syariah Court announced that they would be closed from 7 April 2020 to 1 June 2020 to limit social activity.

One would have thought that with the implementation of the circuit breaker measures, conveyancing transactions would have come to a stand-still as a lot of the procedures involved physical interactions such as the issuance of cheques and cashiers’ orders, signing of documents, and the final completion itself.
