A valid Singapore visa is not an immigration pass, it is a pre-entry permission to allow the holder of the valid Singapore visa to travel to, and seek entry into Singapore. Possessing a valid visa does not guarantee entry into Singapore.

You will have to satisfy the basic entry requirements before being considered for entry into Singapore.

The prevailing entry requirements include:

• A valid passport with at least 6 months' validity;

• A valid Singapore entry visa (if applicable);

• A confirmed return/ onward tickets (where applicable);

• Sufficient funds for the period of stay in Singapore; and

• Entry facilities to their onward destinations (e.g. visas and Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate, if applicable).

Visitors who are eligible for entry will be issued with visit passes upon arrival. These visit passes determine the number of days that visitors can stay in Singapore, and it is not tied to the validity of your visa. The granting of visit passes to visitors is determined by the ICA officers stationed at Singapore Checkpoints depending on the merits of each visitor.
