Singapore SG Arrival Card Information

Unlike a visa, the SG Arrival Card has no eligibility list: it is required from travellers of all nationalities entering Singapore, including those who enter visa-free. What varies by passport is whether an entry visa is also needed, and how long you may stay. Most nationalities enter without a visa, typically for 30 days, while citizens of countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, EU member states, South Korea, Switzerland and Norway are generally granted up to 90 days. Nationals of visa-required countries, listed by ICA under its Assessment Level framework, must obtain a Singapore entry visa before travelling. Requirements are reviewed periodically, so please confirm your country's status on the official ICA website before booking.

To complete an SG Arrival Card, the traveller must hold the following at the time of submission:

1. A valid passport (6+ months validity beyond the date of entry).
2. Travel details, including flight, vessel or bus information, and an accommodation address in Singapore.
3. A current email address and a debit or credit card for payment.

Recent travel history and health information are declared as part of the submission. A return or onward travel ticket is recommended, along with a yellow fever vaccination certificate if arriving from a country with risk of transmission. Applicants under the age of 18 must be supported by a declaration submitted by a parent, legal guardian, or authorised representative; family members travelling together can be covered in a single group submission.

The standard process consists of three stages:

1. Form completion: The traveller provides biographic details, passport information, travel and accommodation details, and completes the electronic health declaration.
2. Verification and submission: Our experts thoroughly review and prepare your declaration. Service eVisa checks your details for errors and inconsistencies and files with ICA as soon as the official submission window opens, 3 days before arrival, including the day of arrival.
3. Acknowledgement: ICA issues the SGAC acknowledgement, normally shortly after filing. Keep a digital or printed copy to present at the checkpoint if requested.

The standard rate of USD $89.90 per applicant is charged in a single payment by Service eVisa. Service eVisa fees cover case review by an advisor, corrections before submission and multilingual support. Full details are shown on the payment page. There is no government charge for the SG Arrival Card, which can always be submitted directly and free of charge through the official ICA e-Service, and this is clearly stated on the payment page. Any Singapore entry visa required for your nationality is a separate government process with its own fee and is not included in this service.

A submitted declaration is not approved or refused in the way a visa application is. Admission to Singapore and the length of stay granted are decided by an ICA officer at the checkpoint, and no pre-arrival document guarantees entry.

If you encounter difficulties, you have several options:

• Correct and resubmit your declaration whenever a detail changes or an error is found; the most recent declaration is the one used at the border.
• Address any question about an entry refusal to the ICA, whose decision it is. Our support team can help you understand the process.
• When a declaration has been processed through Service eVisa and cannot be filed, the service fee is refunded in line with our terms and conditions.

Providing false information, particularly in the health declaration, is an offence under Singapore's Infectious Diseases Act. Service eVisa fees cover review, document checks, and support. The declaration itself is free of charge with ICA, as clearly itemised on the payment page.
