Orders, decorations and medals conferred upon civilians and military personnel in Singapore are listed according to their order of precedence. Awards that are specific to the military or police forces are listed separately. All state orders and decorations are formally styled in the Malay language, the symbolic national language of Singapore.

History

Singapore's national awards were first instituted in 1962. At the time, there were six awards: the Darjah Utama Temasek (Order of Temasek), Sijil Kemuliaan (Certificate of Honour), Pingat Gagah Perkasa (Conspicuous Gallantry Medal), Pingat Bakti Cemerlang (Distinguished Service Medal), Pingat Jasa Gemilang (Meritorious Service Medal) and Pingat Bakti Setia (Long Service Award).

The Pingat Pentadbiran Awam (Public Administration Medal) was introduced in 1963 with three levels, Gangsa, Perak and Emas (Bronze, Silver and Gold respectively).
