⚠️ 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.

What Australia passport holders need to do

  1. Check your passport validity. Many countries ask for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date.
  2. Be ready to show a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and proof of funds at the border.
  3. Leave before the permitted stay ends. Working or studying usually needs a different visa.
