Spain to Singapore visa requirements

Spanish passport holders can visit Singapore visa-free for short social visits under 90 days; the free SG Arrival Card must be submitted within 3 days before arrival, including arrival day. Spanish passport holders do not need a Singapore entry visa for social visits of less than 90 days, but entry is still assessed at the checkpoint and the actual permitted stay is the Short-Term Visit Pass shown in the electronic visit pass (e-Pass). Travellers must hold a passport with at least 6 months' validity on entry, submit the free SG Arrival Card (SGAC) with electronic health declaration within 3 days before arrival including the arrival day, provide biometrics when required, and be ready to show sufficient funds plus onward or return travel. Spain is not listed by ICA among visa-required travel-document countries. If recent travel included a country with yellow-fever transmission risk, or more than 12 hours' airport transit there, a valid yellow-fever vaccination certificate is required. Extensions are online only, can be requested when 14 days or less remain on the STVP, and are assessed case by case. Paid or unpaid employment, business, profession, or occupation is not allowed on a STVP unless the traveller holds a valid Singapore work pass or qualifies under a work-pass-exempt activity.
