Entry requirements overview
Do you need a visa for Singapore?
It depends on the passport you hold, not only where you live. Many travellers need no visa at all; others need an eVisa or a consular visa.
Listed nationalities
ICA's list includes India, Pakistan, Egypt, Bangladesh, Jordan, Lebanon and others. Filipino ordinary-passport holders are not on the list.
How visas are applied for
Without a local Singapore contact, visas are applied for through an authorised visa agent appointed by a Singapore overseas mission, or the mission itself.
GCC citizens
Passports normally need at least six months' validity. The length of stay is set in your electronic Visit Pass at arrival.
Expatriates resident in the GCC
Your nationality decides whether a visa is needed — GCC residence does not remove the requirement. A visa does not guarantee entry; ICA decides at the checkpoint.
Digital requirements
eVisas, authorisations and arrival cards.
Official online systems only. Gulf United Mobility never submits arrival cards or applications through unofficial agent websites.
SG Arrival Card
Free, submitted through ICA's official service or MyICA app within three days before arrival, including the arrival day. It is not a visa.

Final document requirements depend on the applicant's circumstances and the requirements of the relevant authority at the time of application.

- Airside transit passengers who do not clear immigration do not submit an arrival card.
- Check passport validity before booking; six months is normally required.
Government fees and our professional fee are separate
Government visa fees, eVisa charges, authorisation fees and any visa-centre or service-provider charges are set by the relevant authority or its appointed provider. They are paid to them, are subject to change, and are normally non-refundable whatever the outcome.
Gulf United Mobility's published professional service fee covers assessment, preparation, document review and submission guidance only. The applicable route and scope are confirmed before work begins; it is never a government fee. Where no visa is needed, we tell you — we do not sell an unnecessary application.
