Indonesia to Singapore visa requirements

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; ICA states this timing avoids unnecessary immigration-clearance delays.

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 Safe Travel Indonesia lists ordinary/regular Indonesian passports as visa-free for Singapore for 30 days. Indonesia does not appear on Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA)'s visa-required travel-document list, and the Singapore Embassy in Jakarta points travellers to ICA as the authority for visa requirements. On arrival, ICA officers grant a Short-Term Visit Pass / e-Pass; the exact period is decided at the checkpoint and is commonly up to 30 days for Indonesian visitors. Before travel, all visitors who seek immigration clearance must submit the SG Arrival Card (SGAC) with an electronic health declaration, free of charge, within three days before arrival, including the arrival day. Your passport must have at least six months' validity, and you should be ready to show proof of onward/return travel, sufficient funds, and accommodation. There is no visa application, visa fee, or embassy visit required before a qualifying short trip.
