What you need to know
-
Instead of the traditional paper Disembark/Embark Card, travelers would be able to show only their passport for the Immigration Officer to find the Electronic Arrival Card + Health Declaration in their immigration system.
-
Travelers must have a passport with at least 6 months of validity from the planned date of entry.
-
You can apply for the SG Arrival Card + Health Declaration up to 3 days in advance of your arrival in Singapore.
-
The SG Arrival Card + Health Declaration has the purpose of facilitating the entry to Singapore but it DOES NOT replace a visa. If your country requires it, the immigration officers at the airport will ask for your Visa. Bear in mind that some nationalities require a paper visa. If that is the case for you, we suggest you approach the nearest embassy.

Questions
Does this replace a visa?
Anton H, Germany | July 31, 2024
I’m traveling to Singapore next week. I’ve been living in Germany for the past couple of years although my passport’s from UA 🇺🇦. I’m going to fill out the arrival card online before I get on the plane. I’m not sure about the visa situation, though. Does this card replace a visa or do I still need to apply for one separately?
Martin, iVisa | August 2, 2024
The Singapore Arrival Card does not replace a visa. It's a mandatory requirement for all travelers entering Singapore to provide their personal and travel details for immigration clearance. As a Ukrainian passport holder living in Germany, you’ll need to apply for a visa as well, depending on the purpose and duration of your stay in Singapore.
How many times can I use the SG Arrical Card?
Victoria G, Australia | July 7, 2024
I'm flying into Singapore and then taking a cruise to Penang and back. I'll have my SG Arrival Card for my flight into Singapore. When I return to Singapore from the cruise, do I need to fill out a new arrival card, or does the one I got when I flew in cover me?
Cami, iVisa | July 10, 2024
When you return to Singapore from your cruise to Penang, you'll need to fill out a new Singapore Arrival Card. Each entry into Singapore requires a fresh submission of the card, regardless of how you left the country previously. So, for your return via cruise, a new Arrival Card is necessary to ensure smooth immigration clearance.
Do I need an SG Arrival Card for connecting flights?
Sarah L, USA | July 13, 2024
My friends and I are flying from NYC to Phuket next month, with a layover in Singapore, and we've booked our whole trip through Singapore Airlines. Do we need to fill out Arrival Cards for our connection in Singapore, or is that not necessary since we're just passing through?
Martin, iVisa | July 16, 2024
If you're just transiting through Singapore and not passing through immigration (i.e., you're not leaving the transit area), you don't need to submit a Singapore Arrival Card. This applies to your layover in Singapore as you continue to Phuket, so no Arrival Card is needed for this part of your journey.
How do I withdraw the submitted SG Arrival Card if I decide to cancel my trip?
We understand that unforeseen events happen and travel plans can change. Our refund policy is as follows:
-
If your application has not been reviewed by iVisa yet, or has not been submitted to the government for approval, then you will receive a credit for the full amount of both the iVisa processing fee and government fee.
-
If your application has been reviewed by iVisa, but has not yet been submitted to the government yet, you will receive a credit for the full amount of the government fee only.
-
If your application has been reviewed and submitted to the government by iVisa or a visa is already issued, unfortunately, no credit or refund is available.
Singapore Visa Policy
How do processing times work?
What to do if my Singapore Arrival Card has been canceled or rejected?
The iVisa experts will review all your submitted information documents and assist you during the application process to avoid rejections. However, if the Singapore authorities still refuse or cancel your application, you may be eligible for a full refund of the iVisa processing fee related to the number of rejected applicants.
Please note that the government fees are not refunded.
You can reapply for the Singapore SG Arrival Card, depending on the reasons for cancellation or rejection.
Does the date of arrival in Singapore on the application form refer to the date of arrival or the date of departure at the embarkation city/port?
How to update my information if there are any changes to the submitted details on Singapore Arrival Card?
If anything has changed after you have submitted the application for the SG Arrival Card, contact our customer support team as soon as possible. If we have not processed your visa yet, we may be able to make changes, but this is not a guarantee.
If we have already processed and submitted your application to the appropriate Singapore government agency, they may not allow any changes anymore, so please make sure all info is updated and correct before submitting.
