Since the beginning of 2023, I have been unable to add or update certification information for Singapore releases. The error message is “Certification is not valid for the selected country”. There is no drop down list of options and so far I have been typing in the certification manually (based on publicly available information). Please look into this. Thank you.

I just added the certifications for Singapore, so you should be good to go now.
Cheers.

I'm also getting an error when attempting to add a certification for Ireland to movies. Example but not limited to https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/428449-a-ghost-story/edit?active_nav_item=release_information when I edit the Ireland certification and attempt to add 12A I get the generic error Certification is not valid for the selected country
Attempted clearing all browser cache/cookies so am using a empty browser cache with Chrome & Firefox.

@travisbell thanks, can confirm this is now working again.
Follow on question if I may so I fully understand :) What list of certifications are you using ? I don't see 12 or 15 in the newly populated list for movies. The reference I always use for Ireland (I'm Irish BTW) is from Irish Film Classification Office and from their governmental site https://www.ifco.ie/en/IFCO/Pages/FAQ under the What is the difference between 12 and 12A or 15 and 15A? section you can see that 12A and 15A are used for cinema releases whereas 12 and 15 are used for DVD/TV Movies and has been used some streaming services (netflix for example).
A good working example is this movie, https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/17835-threads/edit?active_nav_item=release_information. I need to use 15A as the certification when it should really be 15 as the movie was not released in the cinema.

The same problem with Poland. Can't add any certification for movies.

Also, it seems like some South African descriptors are missing: B, CT, H, IAT and PPS.

Based on what this Wikipedia article says, there aren't any official certifications in Poland. Is that true? If not, what are the values? Is there a website for the board that manages this in Poland?
Do you know, is that for both movies and TV shows?

Apparently yes! Netflix also shows them on shows in South Africa. https://businesstech.co.za/news/media/471048/new-age-restrictions-for-netflix-in-south-africa/
And you don't have to add 'B', it was dropped 3 years ago: https://www.businessinsider.co.za/blasphemy-dropped-from-film-classification-rules-by-film-and-publication-board-2019-4

Hello @travisbell please add TV certifications of India.
U - Viewable for all ages.
U/A 7+ - Viewable for 7 and above years old.
U/A 13+ - Viewable for 13 and above years old.
U/A 16+ - Viewable for 16 and above years old.
A - Viewable only for adults.

And also, please add U/A 7+, U/A 13+ and U/A 16+ for movie certifications of India as well. U & A is already common between TV and Movie certifications. Streaming services like Netflix uses TV certifications for movie releases.
Here's an example and another one.
