Travel Essentials

If you are a Singaporean passport holder, great! You have visa-free or visa on arrival access to 173 countries and territories around the world (as at February 2016). In fact, the Singaporean passport is ranked 5th in the world in terms of travel freedom!

That said, it is always important to be aware of the visitation requirements of your destination. On top of a travel visa document, some countries will require that you have a confirmed return flight, while other countries may have special requirements, like a minimum fee for each day of stay.

Be sure to have all the necessary documents ready (and in your hand-carry!) before you depart. This ensures that you have a smooth entry into your destination country, so you can get going with the planned trip activities quickly!

Here are a few resources for you to find out the visitor requirements for your destination:
