Singapore Tourist Visa

Singapore is a popular tourist destination known for its vibrant nightlife, green spaces, and world-class airport. It offers a wide range of attractions for travelers of all ages, including the Singapore Shopping Festival, indoor skydiving, sports activities, and the National Art Museum. Indian citizens must obtain a visa in order to visit Singapore.

To visit Singapore, travelers need a tourist visa which is valid for 30 days and lasts for 2 years. However, those who already have a multiple entry visa to the country do not need to apply for a tourist visa.

In order to apply for a tourist visa, travelers will need-

1. To provide a valid passport with six months validity
2. Passport size photos
3. A completed and signed visa application form
4. Details about their itinerary
5. Proof of hotel and flight bookings
6. A copy of their return flight ticket
7. A statement from their bank showing the last six months of finances to demonstrate that they have sufficient funds for the trip.

It is also possible to obtain an online visa called the iVisa to visit Singapore by applying online and providing a valid passport with at least 6 months validity, a valid email address, and an approved means of payment.

The processing time for the iVisa to visit Singapore varies depending on the speed of service selected-

1. The standard processing option takes 24 hours and costs USD 20.00.
2. The rush processing option takes 4 hours and costs USD 40.00.
3. The super rush processing option is the fastest, taking only 30 minutes, but it costs USD 60.00.

The iVisa is valid for 14 days after it is issued or until the passport expires, and allows for a single entry into the country for a stay of up to 14 days.
