Document background
A Shared Custody Agreement becomes necessary when parents separate or divorce but wish to maintain joint responsibility for their children's upbringing. This document, governed by Singapore family law, particularly the Women's Charter and Guardianship of Infants Act, provides a comprehensive framework for co-parenting. It includes detailed arrangements for physical custody, decision-making authority, access schedules, and financial responsibilities. The agreement ensures both parents' rights are protected while prioritizing the child's best interests, and can be modified through proper legal channels as circumstances change.
