**Singapore Movie Rating System**

The Media Development Authority revised the film ratings in Singapore on March 29, 2004. The new film ratings are below.

G General
PG Parental Guidance
NC-16 No Children under 16 admitted (For persons 16 years and above ONLY)
M18 Mature 18, for persons 18 years and above
R21 Restricted 21, for persons 21 years and above
G and PG generally has no restrictions on age and most audiences are admitted. Regulation on the presence of adults for PG rated shows are advised but not strictly enforced. (The NC16 rating was issued with the release of Saving Private Ryan, which couldn't be passed as a PG film due to the violence present in the film, but lacked an adult theme to be rated R(A). Ratings from 1998 are different than those above. See below.)

NC16, M18 and R21 groups are restricted to only persons of the specified age or above of the particular group. No persons under the specified age would be admitted as the identity cards have to be checked before the person is allowed to enter the cinema. Once a movie is rated R21, the movie will be banned from DVD or VCD sales.

Before 29 March 2004, these were the film ratings for all movies.

G General
PG Parental Guidance
NC16 No Children under 16 years old
R(A) Restricted (Artistic), restricted to persons 21 years and above.
