The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and Housing & Development Board (HDB) will release new parking coupons incorporating a security watermark feature to deter the forgery of parking coupons.
The watermark feature will be in the form of a 'URA/HDB' logo imprinted on the coupon. The logo is visible to the naked eye when held against bright light.
To further help the public recognize these new parking coupons, the coupons would come with an information band "COUPON WITH WATERMARK" on their lower right edge.
Motorists can continue to use existing parking coupons without the watermark feature, alongside the new coupons. They do not need to exchange their existing parking coupons for new ones.
Parking coupon agents will also continue to sell the existing non-watermark coupons until their stock is depleted. Motorists can purchase these non-watermark coupons.
The new parking coupons will be made available progressively from June 20, 2011. They would be available for sale in major outlets such as 7-Eleven, NTUC FairPrice, Shell and EssoMobil by July 2011.
Motorists are advised to purchase URA/HDB parking coupons only from authorised parking coupon agents.
