The Star Awards for Special Achievement Award is an award presented annually at the Star Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1994.
The category was introduced in 1995, at the 2nd Star Awards ceremony; Xiang Yun received the award for her performance and it is given in honour of a Mediacorp artiste who have made significant contributions in the performance of his/her respective field of profession over the past few years. Winners are selected by a majority vote from the entire judging panel.
The award was initially discontinued from 2004, but was revived in 2018.
Since its inception, the award has been given to Twelve artistes. Mark Lee is the most recent winner in this category.
‡Dates and years listed for each ceremony were the eligibility period of television in Singapore. For the first 14 ceremonies, the ceremony was held at the end of the year (usually December). Since the 15th ceremony held in 2009, the ceremony was held on April and the period of eligibility became the full previous calendar year, hence no ceremony was held in 2008 due to a format change. No ceremony was held on 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic while nominations for the 2019 calendar year were rolled over to the next ceremony.
