The Singapore Department of Statistics (DOS) develops and maintains a national statistical service of quality, integrity and expertise. As the National Statistical Office, we deliver insightful statistics and trusted statistical services that empower decision making. Our data are used by public sector agencies, policymakers, international agencies, businesses, researchers, analysts and the general public as vital inputs for monitoring economic and social trends, policy formulation and evaluation, planning and research, and international reporting. As the National Statistical Co-ordinator, we engage public sector data users and suppliers, provide advice on statistical subject-matters, and develop and promote the observance of national statistical standards. Statistical information, analyses and visualisations are communicated and disseminated through user-friendly platforms such as our website, mobile and electronic services.
