Singapore's Ministry of Digital Development and Information and the Infocomm Media Development Authority are [seeking public feedback on a proposed Digital Infrastructure Bill](https://www.reach.gov.sg/latest-happenings/public-consultation-pages/2026/public-consultation-on-digital-infrastructure-bill/?ref=southeastasiaconnect.com). The consultation says the proposal is intended to strengthen the security and resilience of critical digital services and the environmental sustainability of data-centre operations.

## What is proposed

The consultation sets out a proposed licensing framework for operators of essential digital infrastructure. It identifies data-centre facility services with a contracted IT load of at least 10 megawatts for third parties, and cloud services with average Singapore-user revenue of at least S$100 million over the previous three years, as major essential digital infrastructure services.

## Which data centres are in scope

The draft also proposes that operators of data centres with a contracted IT load of at least 3 megawatts would need a data-centre licence. The government describes the thresholds as proposed criteria for the consultation, rather than a final set of obligations.

## What happens next

The next milestone is the consultation close on 22 July. Operators, customers and investors can now assess the draft’s implications for their own infrastructure plans before the Government responds to the feedback it receives.
