Travelling to Singapore

To ensure a smooth journey into Singapore, find out entry requirements, things to submit and more.

Visa required for travelling to Singapore

Check if You Need a Visa

Step 1: Planning your trip

Visa requirements for traveling to Singapore are determined by factors such as your nationality, duration of stay, and purpose of visit. For detailed information and to check your specific visa needs, please refer to the official Immigration and Checkpoint Authority (ICA) website.

Submit Singapore Arrival Card

Submit Singapore Arrival Card and Declarations

Step 2: Before arrival

Travellers are to submit the SG Arrival Card (SGAC) and the necessary Physical Currency and Bearer Negotiable Instruments (CBNI) declarations electronically if you are carrying more than S$20,000 in total value of CBNI, or its equivalent in a foreign currency.

 

Submission of SGAC is free and can be done via the SGAC e-Service or MyICA Mobile app. Please refer to SGAC with Electronic Health Declaration for more information. As for more information on CBNI, please refer to ICA’s website.

Step 3: Upon arrival

Visitors can use iris, facial and fingerprint biometrics for swift immigration at airport terminals or land checkpoints once enrolled at manual counters.

 

Upon clearing immigration, an electronic visit pass (e-pass) will be sent to the email address registered in your SGAC submission. This e-pass has replaced the arrival stamp endorsement issued to visitors and is part of Singapore’s arrival requirements.
