Vaccination-Differentiated Safe Management Measures: Congregational Prayer at Mosques

With effect from 26 April 2022

In line with the further easing of Safe Management Measures (SMMs) for Religious Activities, there will no longer be any Vaccination Differentiated Safe Management Measures (VDS) for congregational prayers at the following mosques (including daily, and Friday prayers):

Please note that Vaccination Differentiated Safe-Management Measures (VDS) will still apply to all other mosques, specifically for Friday prayers.

• Daily congregational prayers are exempted 
• For Hari Raya Aidiladha prayer only, VDS requirements will not be applied at Masjid Ahmad. 

To provide greater ease for our jemaah during sessions which offer more than 500 spaces, SafeEntry check-ins are no longer required. Instead, jemaah will only have to verify their vaccination status upon entry:-

• (Using mobile app) Jemaah can show vaccination status on the app
• (Using token) Mosques will scan the token to verify

If you are unvaccinated, you are exempt from the VDS if you are:

• Medically exempt from vaccination (documentation required)
• Unvaccinated but have recovered from COVID-19, within a period of 180 days from date of recovery - this would be captured and reflected in the TT/SE app/token
• A child aged 12 and below
