Sign with Singpass signatures can be verified using the Adobe Acrobat Reader application. This should already be installed on your government devices. However, if you are verifying on a non-government device, please:
download Adobe Acrobat Reader here
Please ensure that your agency does not modify the file in transit (content disarm and reconstruction) as this will render the file not verifiable.
Please follow the steps below to verify a Sign with Singpass signature.
Open up signed document on Adobe Acrobat Reader
Check if green tick with "Signed and all signatures are valid"
If you see "Certificate validity is unknown", this is because you do not have the Singpass root signing certificate on your device. Please refer to this guide to install the Singpass root signing certificate.
Go to signature panel
In signature panel, each signature should show:
Document has not been modified
Signer's identity is valid
The signature includes an embedded timestamp
Signature is long term validation (LTV) enabled
Document owner should "click to view this version" to visually inspect that the contents of the document version is signed correctly.
Click on each signature and inspect certificate
Go into signature properties
Show signer's certificate
Certificate should include the following:
Singapore National Root CA - G1
Singapore NDI Intermediate CA 1 - G2
Signer's full name (as per NRIC)
Click the full name and then "details"
Check under subject that signer's name and last 4 characters of NRIC is correct.
