All goods imported into, exported from or transhipped via Singapore can only be moved through authorised piers and places, e.g., Free Trade Zones (FTZs), land checkpoints and other authorised piers and places. You may visit  Authorised Piers and Places for more information.

Please be informed that only personal effects are allowed to be imported via Passenger Terminals. Traders are required to import commercial goods via an authorised pier or place.
