Do Indonesia passport holders need a visa to visit Singapore?

Q: Is the SG Arrival Card the same as a visa?

No. The SG Arrival Card (SGAC) is a free pre-arrival declaration with a health component. It is mandatory for nearly all travelers, including visa-free visitors, but it is not a visa.

Q: When should I submit the SG Arrival Card?

Submit it within 3 days (including the arrival day) before you arrive. Submissions earlier than this window are rejected by ICA.

Q: How long can I stay in Singapore?

ICA officers grant a Social Visit Pass at the checkpoint, usually up to 30 days. The exact duration is at the officer's discretion.

Q: How much does it cost to enter Singapore?

Nothing. There is no visa fee and the SG Arrival Card is free. Beware of third-party sites charging fees for the SGAC.

Q: Can I extend my stay?

You may apply to extend your Visit Pass through ICA before it expires, but extensions are not guaranteed. Avoid overstaying.

No visa needed. Indonesian ordinary passport holders enter Singapore visa-free for tourism, typically for up to 30 days. You must still submit the free SG Arrival Card within 3 days before arrival. Indonesia is an ASEAN member state, and its ordinary passport holders do not need a visa for short tourist or social visits to Singapore. Indonesia does not appear on Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) Assessment Level I or II visa-required lists. On arrival, ICA officers grant a Social Visit Pass — usually up to 30 days, though the exact length is at the officer's discretion. Before travel, every visitor (including visa-free travelers) must submit the SG Arrival Card (SGAC) with an electronic health declaration, free of charge, within three days before arrival. Your passport should be valid for at least six months, and you should be ready to show proof of onward/return travel, sufficient funds, and accommodation. There is no application, fee, or embassy visit required before the trip.
