SINGAPORE
Entry Requirements
& Visa Extension
Citizens of Western Europe, the USA and Commonwealth countries
don't need a visa to enter Singapore. Check with the relevant
embassy before departure . Unless you specify how long you intend
staying, you'll normally be stamped in for fourteen days.
Entering from anywhere other than Malaysia
(with which there are no duty-free restrictions), you can bring
in 1 litre each of spirits, wine and beer duty-free; duty is payable
on all tobacco. Other duty-free goods in Singapore include electronic
and electrical items, cosmetics, cameras, clocks, watches, jewellery,
and precious stones and metals.
Extending your visa for up to three months is possible, at the
discretion of the Singapore Immigration and Registration Department
(Mon-Fri 9am-5pm; tel 3916100). Extensions beyond three months
are less common, but there's always the option of taking a bus
up to Johor Bahru, across the border in Malaysia, and then coming
back in again.
