Last updated on 30 October 2026
There are 3 stages to generate Internationally Transferrable Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs) under the Singapore-Mongolia Implementation Agreement (IA).
Stage A – Concept of the Proposed Mitigation Activity
The Project Applicant submits the completed Singapore-Mongolia Mitigation Activity Note of Intent (in English) to the Joint Committee.
If the Mitigation Activity Note of Intent is accepted by both countries, the Joint Committee will forward to the Project Applicant the Letter of Support and Letter of Intent from Singapore and Mongolia respectively. These letters may specify the conditions that the Project Applicant should meet in designing the proposed Mitigation Activity.
If the Mitigation Activity Note of Intent is not accepted, the Project Applicant will be informed, along with any reasons for the non-acceptance (if relevant).
The LOS and LOI will have a validity period of 2 years. Should the Authorisation Application Form not be submitted during the validity period of the Letters, the Project Applicant would be required to reapply at Stage A of the application process.
Documents to be submitted
Singapore-Mongolia Mitigation Activity Note of Intent
Company Registration Certificate (if applicable, for companies)
Legal Personality Certificate (if applicable, for Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs))
Spreadsheet showing how expected emissions reduction/ removal figures were calculated
Singapore and Mongolia may request for the submission of other relevant documents not listed above.
Stage B – Authorisation of Proposed Mitigation Activity
The Project Applicant submits the completed Singapore-Mongolia Authorisation Application Form (in English) to the Joint Committee.
If the Request for Authorisation is accepted by both countries, the Joint Committee will:
Forward to the Project Applicant the Letters of Authorisation issued by Singapore and Mongolia respectively
Enter the Mitigation Activity into the Project Register
The Project Applicant may then proceed with the registration of the Mitigation Activity with the carbon crediting programme specified in the Letters of Authorisation and inform the Joint Committee of the successful registration. The Project Applicant may then proceed with the implementation of the project.
If the proposed Mitigation Activity is not authorised, the Project Applicant will be informed, along with any reasons for the non-acceptance (if relevant).
