Before you travel
Checked November 2026⚠️ ICA states the SG Arrival Card is free and that commercial sites charging a fee to submit it are not affiliated with ICA; use only the ICA e-Service or the MyICA app. Use only the official links below.
At the border
- Holders of 34 listed passports (e.g. India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nigeria, Russia, Egypt) need a visa; most other nationalities enter visa-free.
- Almost all travellers must submit the free SG Arrival Card with electronic health declaration within 3 days before arrival (arrival day counts), via the ICA e-Service or MyICA app; one submission can cover up to 3 trips.
- Visas are not issued at the immigration counter; a visa does not guarantee entry.
- Length of stay is set by the electronic visit pass (e-Pass) emailed on arrival, not by the visa validity.
- Travellers who were in a yellow-fever-risk country in the previous 6 days (or transited there for more than 12 hours) face yellow fever checks.

- Be ready to show a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and proof of funds at the border.
