Singapore is now open to fully vaccinated Filipino tourists with minimal restrictions, provided that you submit the documents prior to your flight.

Pre-departure tests are no longer required of fully vaccinated travelers headed to Singapore, but those with partial vaccinations or those who have not been inoculated are required to submit negative RT-PCR test results before the flight, and undergo quarantine, or a 7-day Stay Home Notice (SHN).

What to know before flying to Singapore:

Starting Aug. 29, unvaccinated individuals can enter Singapore without having to undergo quarantine.

“Travellers entering Singapore before 29 Aug 2022, will have your SHN end upon completion of the 7-day SHN period, or upon receipt of a negative PCR test result, whichever is later. All SHN-related instructions and requirements can be found in the SHN sent to your e-mail,” according to the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority.

The SG Arrival Card must be accomplished and submitted three days before arrival in Singapore. The day you depart is part of the count, so if you’re flying out on Sept. 3, you can only submit the form starting Sept. 1.

Where to register for SG Arrival Card

Forms can be filled online via the IAC website or through the app.

Those travelling in groups can choose to fill out individual forms or send in a group submission. For group submissions, a group leader needs to be assigned.

Number of travelers under group submission

The form will accept up to 10 people in one group submission, including the leader. The leader’s profile can add up to nine accounts before submission.

Details needed for SG Arrival Card

Information such as passport number, date of departure and arrival, port of arrival and departure, flight number, and place of accommodation are required. Take note of birthdays, passport expiries, and full names as they appear on the passport.

It is at this point that you need to input your vaccination status. At present, Singapore is accepting travelers fully vaccinated with the initial series, meaning at least 2 shots for all brands except Johnson & Johnson, which only requires 1 dose. It is recommended to get a booster, but those who are ineligible for the third shot can still travel.

For group submissions, group leaders will receive multiple barcodes to cover all members in their party. This will be available on the site, or on the app, and sent to your e-mail. Individuals part of the group will receive their code and summary via e-mail only.

TraceTogether

Arrival tests and quarantines are no longer required in Singapore, but travelers are required to download the country’s contact tracing app TraceTogether for monitoring.

The app can be downloaded for free and accepts mobile phone numbers from international territories. After downloading, you’ll be sent an OTP and asked to fill out pertinent information on your stay, passport information, and your vaccination status.

When to activate TraceTogether

Only activate the app once you’ve arrived in Singapore and pass through immigration. Once set, it will reflect your vaccination status.

Local establishments may require you to present a TraceTogether QR code which you can generate on the app, through the button on the lower left of the screen.
