Singapore visa for Indian passports

Indian passport holders need a Singapore entry visa before travel. It is not issued at the airport.

Last checked October 2026. Rules change; we confirm everything again when we plan your trip.

Entry: Visa in advance
Fee: S$30 processing fee (non-refundable)

How to apply

Apply through a visa agent authorised by Singapore’s mission in India, or at the mission. Singapore’s ICA advises applying within 30 days before arrival.

How long you can stay

Set at the checkpoint when you arrive (the Visit Pass), not by the visa

Processing time

Within 3 working days, not counting the day of submission. Some take longer.

Documents checklist

Form 14A, completed and signed
Recent colour passport photo, taken within the last 3 months
Copy of the passport data page; passport valid at least 6 months from entry
SG Arrival Card with a valid email address, submitted online

Good to know

ICA does not accept visa applications at the immigration counters.
A letter of introduction from a local contact (Form V39A) may be asked for, case by case.
