Updates on Border Measures for Travellers Entering Singapore from India

14 March 2022

  1. With effect from 14 March 2022, 2359 hours (Singapore time), Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) travellers entering Singapore from India will be required to do an unsupervised self-swab (USS) Antigen Rapid Test (ART) within 24 hours of entry. This will replace the previous requirement for a supervised self-swab (SSS) ART. Travellers are required to report their USS ART test result via sync.gov.sg before proceeding with their activities in Singapore.

  2. In addition, all travellers from India will still need to undergo COVID-19 pre-departure test. Travellers are to present a negative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test result or a professionally administered (i.e., performed by trained medical professionals) negative ART result taken within 48 hours before their departure to Singapore. It is a pre-requisite before passengers are allowed to board their flights to Singapore. They will also be required to present their valid COVID-19 negative PCR/ART test result upon arrival in Singapore. Fully vaccinated recovered travellers who are certified positive for COVID-19 between 7 to 90 days (inclusive) before departure for Singapore may qualify for exemption from COVID-19 tests. You may use the self-check tool at https://go.gov.sg/recovered-traveller-checker to determine if you qualify as a Vaccinated-Recovered traveller. Please refer to the travel checklist for fully vaccinated and recovered travellers at safetravel.ica.gov.sg/vaccinated-recovered

  3. Please refer to the Singapore Ministry of Health press release dated 11 March 2022 (https://www.moh.gov.sg/news-highlights/details/resuming-our-transition-to-resilience) and the SafeTravel website for more details.
