Collect only at Community Club counters
Vending machines can't check pregnancy, a child's age or medical conditions, and only have adult sizes.
Bring the NRIC and proof if you have it, like an antenatal card, maternity booklet, appointment card or medical memo. Without proof, you can declare it at the counter. For a child, call the CC first to check which ID to bring.
Opening hours vary: each place below shows its own.
- 2 masks per person, one pack each.
- Someone can collect for you, like a family member or friend, using your NRIC.
- Not in either group? The free masks aren't for you. N95 masks are sold at pharmacies and supermarkets, and most people don't need one for short trips outdoors.
