Singapore partially relaxes Covid entry rules

Fully vaccinated travellers will enjoy quarantine-free entry from 1 April. However, travellers are still required to take a pre-departure test up to two days before departure. This can be an antigen test, provided it is supervised.

As a result of the change, Singapore Airlines and sister budget brand Scoot will no longer designate specific Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) flights from 1 April. Customers currently booked on a VTL flight on or after 1 April may travel as planned. 

Travellers regardless of vaccination status will be allowed to transit through Singapore on almost all Singapore Airlines and Scoot flights from 1 April if they meet the entry requirements of their final destination. 

A spokesperson said: “The SIA Group welcomes the latest measures to simplify travel protocols for entry into Singapore.

"This supports the goal of restoring Singapore’s position as a leading tourist destination and premier air hub. The SIA Group will continue to closely monitor travel demand and increase our capacity and services accordingly.”
