Before You Come
Singapore welcomes visitors from all over the world but follow these steps before you embarked on a trip to the little red dot in Southeast Asia.
Step 1: Check VISA Status

Step 2: Declare Health Status
Three (3) Days or 72 hours before entering Singapore, you will need to declare your health status online via the SG ARRIVAL CARD.
Do note that there are websites that are charging for this service which is entirely free of charges.

If you are on medical prescription drugs, do check with the Ministry of Health before bringing them into Singapore. Click here.
Step 3: Remain Connected
While Wi-Fi is everywhere, getting information while exploring Singapore is better served when you have a proper internet connection for your mobile devices.
Do check with your telco or search for a prepaid travel SIM card like AirSIM (Hong Kong).
Step 4: Change Your Money
SIngapore is very connected when paying for products and services. Our public transport can be paid using overseas Debit and Credit card so long you have the PayWave feature switched on.
Then again, to keep costs low some businesses prefer cash over payment using credit card. This is important when dining at Hawker Centers.
