How a Privateye investigation actually runs

Every Privateye case follows the same disciplined process: a free consultation, a clearly scoped plan, lawful evidence-gathering, and a report you can act on with confidence.

Last updated:

1. Free, confidential consultation

Every case begins with a conversation — in person, by phone, or via WhatsApp — to understand your situation before anything is agreed or charged.

2. Scoping and a fair, case-specific fee

Because no two cases are alike, Privateye scopes the objectives and timeline before quoting a fee, rather than selling fixed packages.

Regulatory source: The Singapore Police Force states that agencies supplying private-investigator services require a Private Investigation Agency licence, and deployed investigators must meet applicable licensing and training conditions. Read the SPF licensing requirements.

3. Lawful evidence-gathering

Investigators use surveillance, records checks, and interviews as appropriate — always within the bounds of Singapore law.

4. Clear reporting

Findings are compiled into a professional report, timestamped and organised, ready to support your decision or your legal proceedings.

Frequently asked questions

These answers cover the practical questions clients most often ask before engaging a private investigator in Singapore. They give a direct starting point — the right scope always depends on the facts of the individual case.

How is confidentiality maintained?

Every enquiry is handled with strict confidentiality — information is only shared with the investigators assigned to your case.

How long does the process typically take from enquiry to report?

Timelines vary by case complexity, but the consultation stage typically clarifies an estimated timeframe before work begins.

Speak with Privateye confidentially

Privateye offers a free first consultation to understand your situation and explain suitable investigative options — before any assignment is agreed.
