Abstract: We construct global orientifold limits of singular $F$-theory vacua whose associated gauge groups are SO(3), SO(5), SO(6), $F_4$, SU(4), and Spin(7). For each limit we show a universal tadpole relation is satisfied, which is a homological identity whose dimension-zero component encodes the matching of the D3 charge between each $F$-theory compactification and its orientifold limit. While for smooth $F$-theory compactifications which admit global orientifold limits the contribution to the associated universal tadpole relation comes from its Chern class, we show that for all singular $F$-theory compactifications under consideration, the contribution to the universal tadpole relation comes from its emph{stringy} Chern class.
