Yes, minors can inherit HDB flats but here are some things to note.
In order for an HDB flat to be transferred to another person, the proposed owner needs to meet certain criteria, including the requirement that the proposed owner needs to be at least 21 years old.
For a minor, the flat will need to be temporarily managed by an adult before the minor turns 21 years old. You can consider specifying who to manage the flat in your will or in some circumstances, potentially put the flat in a trust (will require approval from the Housing Development Board). Please speak to a lawyer on the most appropriate course of action.
