Singapore Arrival Card Requirements for Citizens of the United States

As a United States citizen, you should complete the application form for a Singapore SG Arrival Card.

The Singapore SG Arrival Card application process is straightforward. All nationals of the United States need to submit is the following information:

• Full name
• Gender
• Country, place, and date of birth
• Contact data: email address, phone number, home address
• Intended date of entry into Singapore
• Passport details: country, number, issue, and expiry date

After completing these fields and uploading relevant documents, US citizens are asked to pay the SG Arrival Card processing fee, which can be done through a debit or credit card.

If you are traveling to Singapore and planning to apply for a Singapore SG Arrival Card, it is advised that you check the general visa conditions for US citizens before beginning to fill in the application form.

The following is required by United States passport holders applying for a Singapore SG Arrival Card:

• A valid and up-to-date American passport. Ensure it is valid for at least 6 months from your date of arrival in Singapore.
• A valid form of payment, such as a credit or debit card, which is required to pay the SG Arrival Card fee.
• A current email address. This is required as the final approved Singapore SG Arrival Card will be sent to this address.

In addition to these key documents, applicants from the United States are also requested to supply basic personal information, details from their passport, data regarding their travel plans including arrival date and proof of onward travel, and a health declaration.

The Singapore SG Arrival Card permits expedited entry to the country from the United States via the following authorized ports of entry:

• Singapore Changi Airport – SIN
• Woodlands checkpoint
• Tuas checkpoint
• Singapore Cruise Centre
• Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal
• Changi Point Ferry Terminal
• Changi Ferry Terminal

Once US travelers arrive in Singapore, border officials will require them to show their American passport and the SG Arrival Card, which is also electronically linked to the passport.

If all details are correct, immigration authorities will grant them entry into Singapore.

The Singapore SG Arrival Card, also known as an online tourist authorization, allows entry to Singapore for American citizens for a stay of up to 30 days.

US  nationals traveling for authorized purposes and less than 30 days to the country do not need a Singapore visa. However, they still need to apply for an Arrival Card.

If you are an American citizen planning to travel to Singapore for a stay longer than 30 days, or for long-term work-related, study-related, and/or residence-related reasons, you are advised to contact one of the Singaporean consulates in the US (Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami or San Francisco), or the Singaporean embassy in Washington DC, to obtain a Singapore visa.
