Hi Sir, travelling to bali via Singapore. Layover of 3:20 hrs. What ahould i do, coz i will arrive at terminal 1 and will have to catch terminal 4 to board on next flight. So im thinking not have check in baggage only handbag. In this case do i need to go via immigration. Will 3 hrs be sufficient to check in again as i m having 2 different pnr or should i book a different flight from Singapore to bali. While returning back too the layover at Singapore of 6hrs. Im a first time international traveller and i wasn't aware so i booked the low carrier flight. Please guide me to avoid any kind of hassle. Getting eviisa will suffice for both the times or do o have to apply further while returning. Return will be after 7 days. Thank you
Once you arrive at Terminal 1, you’ll need to make your way to Terminal 4 to catch your next flight. Since you're traveling on two different PNRs and possibly different airlines, you may need to clear immigration, collect your baggage (if any), and check in again at Terminal 4. f you're only carrying a handbag, you may be able to use the airside transfer service without clearing immigration. However, this depends on the airlines' transfer agreements. Check with both airlines in advance to confirm this. If you're not leaving the transit area and your flights are within the same terminal or you can transfer airside, you typically don’t need to clear immigration, and your e-visa may suffice. However, since you’re on different PNRs, it's safer to be prepared to clear immigration. Ensure your e-visa allows multiple entries, as you may need to clear immigration and re-enter Singapore. You shouldn’t need an additional visa if you have a valid e-visa covering both entries. If you’re concerned about the tight connection, especially on separate PNRs, it might be safer to book a later flight from Singapore to Bali. This will give you more time in case of any delays.
Hey, i am travelling to Bali via Singapore having layover of 6 hours. So i am thinking of taking Free Singapore Tour offered by Changi airport my question is Do i need to apply evisa for that tour as we will go outside airport for tour? If yes which one?
Hi. I will be travelling from Jakarta to Hyderabad via Singapore with different PNR and different airlines. Layover is 5 hrs. Do i need a transit Visa?
yes you should have singapore visa in that case. Also, take the same clarification from your airlines because some airlines may have code share agreement and then you are not required worry about clearing the immigration
I'm have a flight to Singapore from Mumbai with air india flight then from there i have another flight from Singapore to shanghai after 8 hour layover on china southern airline.. do i need visa? i booked the ticket through make my trip. when i asked them they told i Don't need visa. but I'm not so confident
see when you book flights it does say self-transfer required or not. As far I know air India does not have code share agreement with Southern China airlines but they do have one with Air China. If your ticket is on the single PNR there should not be any issues. The Changi terminals are well connected with mono rails or skytrains. Do check with Air India as well to confirm.
I have been looking for a direct and clear answer for weeks now but I am still not satisfied. I am traveling from India with an Indian Passport to Taiwan and there’s a layover for around 8hrs in Changi Airport. I do not have any visa other than Taiwanese Visa. Do I need to apply for a Singapore Tourist Visa? I do not intend to leave the transit area. Please clarify. There’s something called VFTF and it says that one needs a visa from UK, US and few other countries to be eligible for VFTF. Do I need this?
Taiwan is not in the list of VFTF firstly, If you are flight is on the single PNR or same airlines then you remain in the transit hall without clearing the immigration and board you next flight.
Im going thailand & Vietnam in upcoming day's and flight PNR is same. & My layover is as Singapore for 11.45 hrs so thinking to go out & explore Singapore... So do i need visa..?
Hi, I am travelling to Hong kong from Mumbai. I have a 2 hour layover at singapore airport and I am having the same pnr with singapore airlines. I have to Change terminals at changi airport. Do I have to get singapore visa?

Hello Im traveling to Auckland (New Zealand) and have a valid Indian Passport and a Work Visa for NZ. I'm traveling from Chennai to Singapore in Air India and have a 3 hour 45 mins layover. I then take the Singapore Airlines from Singapore to Auckland. I land in Terminal 2 and take off from Terminal 3. Air India has mentioned that they cant comfirm a through baggage check in because of changing terminal. I want to understand if i need a visa at Singapore for this situation?
Well, Air India and Singapore airlines have code share agreement as far I know, so airlines must be responsible for the baggage transfers. Between, you are also eligble for VFTF transit facility: Check here: www.airindia.com/in/en/travel-information/baggage-guidelines/checked-baggage-allowance.html
I am travelling from Trivandrum to Tokyo n return also from Tokyo to Trivandrum with a layover of 7 hours at Singapore airport. Tickets booked in same itinerary but 2 reference number ( scoot and Singapore airlines).TVM to Singapore scoot airlines.. n Singapore to Tokyo by Singapore airlines.. Will I need a transit visa?
well scoot has transfer arrangement with the airport and the singapore airlines so as far I know there is no need for any visa or transit visa in this case. I hope you PNR detail does not specify self-transfer required. You should also verify with Singapore airlines but as far I know no visa is required in this case.
Hi, can you pls clarify if i would need a singapore visa if i want to opt for a Free Bus Tour from Changi in a 13 hour layover? I have a multiple entry Aus tourist visa.
I booked a complete itenarary departing on 12th march, one flight is from Manila to Singapore via Jetstar Asia and latter from Singapore to Delhi via Air India (as both these airlines are partner airlines) but my ticket is generated with 2 different PNR with single ticket no. (Code share airlines) I wanted to enquire whether I will need a transit visa if my entry and departure terminals are different and my layover duration is 7.40 hours also, and I am an Indian passport holder?
Go through your e ticket reciept, bags applicability will be mentioned on it, most probably after first flights itinerary. It will be mentioned with Airport codes.Double PNR sometimes doesnt mean that you will have to check in your bags again.
If someone has a flight from bali to delhi and layover in Singapore. But Have a US visa, so do i will get a transit visa? Or do i need to apply for normal tourist visa?

Thanks for this informative video. Could you please advise on my following Que: I have a 20 hrs layover at Changi airport and connecting flight airline and PNR are same. In addition, I also hold a US tourist visa. Could you please advise if I need to apply for a separate Singapore visa if I wish to take the city tour or my US visa is sufficient?
As long as you have the US Visa you are eligible for VFTF facility. Moreover, you have single PNR flight so I dont see any issues in that. VFTF for your reference: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility
I have singapore airlines flight with single pnr from india to singapore to bali but its showing i need transit visa .I m just 2 days away from the date of my travel and idk what to do now😭.pls help if you know anything regarding this
If it is a Singapore airlines flight they have transfer arrangement with Changi airport. If there is another airline in between then there are chances in which you may required self-transfer or your PNR ticket will say "self-transfer" But it is a Singapore airlines flight until your final destination, then I dont see an issue here. Contact Singapore airlines and take clariication
sir my flight is mumbai to phuket via visa,singapore layover is 12 hours, in singapore airlines, if i wan tot roam city in that time, can it be done without singapore visa?

Hello Sir, Thank you so much for your valuable information. I have one small query, can you please help. I am an Indian travelling from Tokyo To Vizag via Singapore holding Japan work visa, via Singapore airlines. My Transit is for 14 hours at Singapore. I have not booked tickets back to Japan, because i am not sure of dates of return. I am going with my family, all having Japan visa, so can we get the Singapore VFTF for us. Can you please confirm
As far I know they Singapore airlines have transit arrangements within Changi. So the immigration clearance is not required. It is better to check with the airlines in this case since your airlines is the same but PNR is different. But there should not be any issues in that

Hi sir, meri return flight Langkawi se amritsar kee hai scoot airlines via singapore jisme 22 hours ka layover hai singapore mein. Mere pass US ka valid tourist visa bhi hai to kya vftf facility le sakta hoon ya koi or jisse singapore ghoom sakoon?
you are eligible for VFTF if you have a valid US visa: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility This is a latest video with chapters: ruclips.net/video/e5aNMm9ns_8/видео.html
We are travelling to bali via singapore but with different PNR for flight to go and flight to come back to Mumbai, so do we require transit visa? We only have one week left
if it is a different PNR flight you may required a visa. Also check if your PNR says self-transfer. Some airlines also have code share arrangements so in that case transfer of your luggage lies in the hands of the airlines but I am not sure which airlines you are choosing. I would also suggest to verify the same with the airlines you are traveling with.
Hi, I am traveling from Australia to India. I have already bought the ticket, but I need to self-transfer, so there won't be any boarding pass with me for the next flight. (But I have the ticket.) My next flight departs in 5 hours after landing. Will I be eligible for VFTF? Also, do we need to fill out any documents before traveling?
no need to fill out any form before traveling unless you clear the immigration and enter Singapore. The form is SG arrival card. For VFTF: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility
Hi sir , I am travelling to Delhi to Sydney visa Singapore with Singapore airline and same pnr . My layover is 13hrs , I have Australia & Nz valid tourist visa . So need is Singapore visa ?

Hi, Shubham here. I have a 10 hr layover at Changi airport while Returning from Jeju Island (South Korea) to Chennai via Scoot airlines.

Hi, I have my flight to the US with a layover of 3 days in Singapore. 1. I am eligible for VFTF based on my US Visa. Do I need to apply for an SG arrival card before reaching the airport? or I can just stand in the immigration line and show my US visa? 2. Do I need to show any proof of my stay in Singapore because I am staying for 3 days? 3. what's the best way to use the internet on mobile while I am in Singapore, using roaming on an existing number or taking a travel sim in Singapore? 4. Do we need to collect our luggage in Singapore and check-in with them on the return journey to the US or they can keep the luggage with the airline itself if we don't need the luggage while in singapore? TIA
SG arrival is mandatory for everyone. So anyone who is going to enter the city is required to fill out SG arrival card. They can check proof of accommodation so simpley reserve the hotels and choose pay later options. If you have a single PNR flight the baggage will be delivered at your final destination. You should also check with the airlines because baggage policies can also differ. I think for 3 days you can use your mobile on roaming but do check that your service providers in the US has an arrangement with local providers in Singapore. I think that would be singtel in Singapore.
I am traveling to Japan from India via Singapore Airlines business class. I have a layover in Singapore for 20 hours, so I am eligible for VFTF. I understand, after watching your video, that I have to apply for VFTF. What is it? I am holding a Japan visa.
If you are in transit to or from any third country, you may be eligible for the 96-hour visa free transit facility (VFTF) in Singapore if you have a valid onward air ticket departing within 96 hours. You may enter Singapore by any mode of transport but must depart Singapore by air. Assessment for entry is determined by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officers at the point of entry. So they will just verify your US Visa and onward journey ticket.
Hello, i have a flight from Shanghai to Singapore and then on a different airline and different PNR i have return flight to Mumbai with a layover of 6 Hrs. Can i transit freely? How do i collect my bags and re-check in? I have valid US and Schengen Visa, can i get free transit visa?
For changing terminals you don't need a transit visa. The airport is well connected with mono rails or sky trains. But I am not sure of the airlines you are traveling with. Some airlines have transfer arrangements or code-sharing so in that case they will be responsible for the baggage transfers. If your PNR says self-transfer then you may require singapore visa OR VFTF is applicable in your case. Also, verify the same with your airlines too.
if the PNR is same then there should not be any problem. Please check your tickets it should not have self-transfrer and the same flight or different flight. Some airlines have code share agreement as well.
not need if it is a single PNR flight or as long as you remain in the transit hall. For 50 mins layover I dont think so that you need to clear the immigration and that means airlines already has transfer arrangements. You must also contact your airlines to verify
Big fan of yours... very informative vides...❤ actually just wanna asked i will travel to Bali via Singapore with different carriers from India to Singapore (Air India) and Singapore to Bali (low budget Jetstar).so in delhi they will give you both flight boarding pass or not...?? and in Singapore have to change T2 to T4 so is there need any visa pls help....
Dear, In Delhi you will be issued boarding pass of India to Singapore flight (Air India). But if your onward journey from Singapore is also with the same airlines that you receive 2 boarding passes at the airport. For instance, if you opt to choose Singapore airlines. Jetstar and Air India collaborate through code-sharing, allowing seamless transfer of your luggage to Bali. Upon arriving in Singapore, you can obtain your Jetstar boarding pass without the need for a visa. Additionally, you can change terminals while remaining airside. Please also recheck with your airlines to verify. Ideally, we need a Singapore visa if we have different PNR flights or if it says self-transfer. So just verify the code-share thing with Air India or Jet star.
I am planning a trip to Tokyo from Dubai. I have valid Japan visa. I live in Dubai with a valid residence permit. If I want to fly with Singapore Airlines from Dubai -Singapore- Tokyo route will I need any transit visa at the Changi airport transit area? I do not need to enter Singapore. Possible travel date is 19 February 2024. The flight SQ 495 from DXB to SIN stops at terminal 2 at the Changi airport. I just need to catch the next connecting flight to Tokyo at the Changi airport. It is the flight no SQ 634 which departs from Terminal 3.
See, Changi airport are well connected with sky trains, mono rails so there is problem I see while transiting. You can still catch your next flight without clearing the immigration and especially, if you are traveling Singapore airlines. They have transfer arrangements at the airport because it is national carrier also it seems you have a single PNR flight. But do re-check the same with the airlines.
Hi, thank you for the video. My flight (Air India) from Mumbai will land at terminal 2 and after a layover of 8hrs the next flight ( jet star) is from terminal 4. Do i need an eVisa?

As I need to change flight at Singapore and need to go from T2 to T4 And pnr is different but ticket booking number(makemytrip) is same and makemytrip agent says i don't need visa
The flight ticket should not say, self-transfers required that is the first thing to check. As far I know both Air India and Jet star have code share agreement so baggage transfers should not be an issue here. Please cross check the same with Air India
@himanshuajudia4838 on my answers from youtubers they told me that please check at airport and specifically ask them to tag your baggage directly to bali at rajkot airport or mumbai airport Beacuse if you need to get your baggage at simgapore airport then definitely you need visa

Hi - I have Canada PR & US B2 visa. Can I avail VFTF if I have a round trip to Singapore i.e flight from Del to Sin and Sin to Del (3 Days stay in Singapore)?
In 3 hours you will not be able to explore Singapore city and immigration may not allow to enter the city. You can still explore Singapore Changi terminals which is wonder in itself. If you have a single PNR flight then no need to clear the immigration as long as you remain in the transit hall.

As you have a connecting flight and are staying within the airport transit hall, you should not require a visa. As far I know both the airlines have a code share agreement and transfer arrangements, however, it is best to confirm with the airlines or immigration.

I have a doubt regarding form 14a. I have booked Jetstar - Air India from Kuala Lumpur to Bangalore for my return journey. I have about 16 hours layover at Changi Airport. I want to use this time to visit nearby places and then come back to the airport. But in the visa application form 14a, there's a section to mention "where will you be staying in Singapore" and "particulars of local contact". I don't intend to stay anywhere, just visit some places and then come back to the airport for my journey back home. So what should I put in those sections?
the same thing happened to me recently when I applied for Singapore visa. So through agoda I booked a capsule hostel -Book now, Pay later option and specified that address which I will cancel later as soon as visa is approved.

I think your flight is on the Single PNR in that case no visa is needed but check your ticket and see if any of the flight says self transfer is required or not. If it says self-transfer is required then visa is needed. Also, Scoot has code share arragement with Singapore airlines so ideally you are not suppose to clear the immigration. But do take more confirmation from Singapore airlines
Sir I booked a ticket to Indonesia New Delhi to Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur is the layover and the issue occurred that is airlines same but PNR different. Airlines Airasia
Thanks for the sharing this helpful information, I have a doubt. I have booked the flight from Bangalore to Bali with layover in Singapore. Both the flights are booked on same PNR but both airlines are different (Air India and Jetstar Asia) so in this case also transit Visa is required or it will not require as PNR is same. Also, if in case still transit visa is required or I want to visit Jewel then since we need to pass immigration, will H1/H4 US visa be acceptable as I have that? though I have not travelled to US yet.

very good question. But here I can say that if your final destination requirements have the criteria where passport validity can be less 6 months then you should be allowed through the immigration. For transit passengers they will always check your requirements for the final destination
As long as Single PNR and it says that no transit/transfer is required it is ok. What is your second flight? This is my latest video on Singapore transit: ruclips.net/video/e5aNMm9ns_8/видео.html
My Flight From Delhi To Phuket My Layover 22 hours at changi airport My Airline same from both sides Singapore airline…Shall i need visa or i want to exist airport to explore between layover can i exist airport or not
if it is a Singapore airlines and the single PNR flight then no issues your transfers will be taken care by the airlines. It is national carrier so they have transfer arrangements with the Changi airport. You are not required to clear the immigration. But, If you want to explore the city then you need a visa to enter Singapore city.
Hi , I do have a Singapore Airlines flight from Kolkata (CCU) to Singapore Changi airport, there in I have a layover for 3h 45mins . Then from Singapore I have an Air Canada Flight to Vancouver YVR international airport. Both are different carriers but connecting flight. So this case will I be needing a e-visa just for the layover
Thank you for this info, very helpful. One query I have, we are travelling to Bali via Singapore with different PNR, there is transit at both times to and fro. Do we need multiple entry Singapore Visa or single?
I have Singapore multiple entry visa. Can I stay in Singapore just for 1 day and fly next day to philphilnes. Will Singapore immigration allow me to stay just 1 day ??
I have a query regarding the transit visa- I am traveling from Kolkata CCU (INDIA) to Singapore by INDIGO Airlines on the 14th of March while my next flight is to Auckland (NEW ZEALAND) the very same day in the evening at 1800. My PNRs are different for both legs, I have a 10-year US visa along with a 1-year New Zealand Visa on my passport. Am I eligible for a visa that will let me stay in a hotel in Singapore for that day? My return journey is from Auckland to Singapore on the 29th of March by Air New Zealand after which I fly to Kolkata CCU (INDIA) on an INDIGO flight which is after 12 hours with different PNRs. I have the same question here- Am I eligible for a visa that will let me stay in a hotel in Singapore for that day as well? This will apply to my wife as well who is traveling with me on the same flight while she has the same visas
as long as you remain in the transit hall or within the boundaries of the airport or unless you clear the immigration you dont need to fill the SG arrival card.

Hi, I am traveling to Phuket via Singapore from Bengaluru and the layover is around 8 hrs at Changi airport. My flight is booked from Singapore Airlines to Phuket, but different PNR. Do I need a visa or can transit easily within terminals 1 to 4? Would really appreciate it if you could guide me as I have tried reaching out to many authorities.TIA
Scenario -1: Well, firstly, when you booked your flight or while booking does your itinerary says "self-transfer is required". If that is the case, then immigration clearance would be needed. Scenario -2: If it is a different PNR flight then immigration clearance or visa is needed. Some airlines have code sharing agreements between then OR Transfer arrangements with the airport, so baggage transfer responsibility would be on them and in such a cases you can skip the immigration at Singapore airport- which does not seem to be a case here and I am not sure which airlines you are traveling from India. For instance, if you have Air India flight to Singapore and Singapore airlines to Phuket then Air India & Singapore airlines have code share agreements. On the other hand, if both the airlines have code share agreements then for which route, for instance, Air India or Singapore airlines have code share agreements on following routes: Kolkata - Singapore - Kolkata Singapore - Bangkok - Singapore Singapore - Kuala Lumpur - Singapore Singapore - San Francisco - Singapore Singapore - Los Angeles - Singapore Scenerio-3: See, the Changi airport is well connected with mono rails and all the terminals are well connected to each other and you can change terminals without immigration clearance as long as you remain in the transit hall and wait for your next flight. But, in your case you have a different PNR flight so you should apply for a visa. Please do try to reach out to Singapore airlines and Air India as well to verify the same. But if you do not have clarity from both the airlines then better apply for a visa.

Hi Sir - this is an excellent video with the requisite clarification 👍 I have 2 queries: 1. Planning to travel with family of 5 members to Bali through Singapore and a Singapore city visit during layover. I understand that Singapore eVisa is required, so I will apply for single entry Singapore visa. Also, during the return journey from Bali, I have a layover at Singapore and may want to do another Singapore city visit during layover on the return journey - is it required to apply for another Singapore eVisa for this 2nd city visit on return layover? 2. In the above travel to Bali, one family member has a valid long term multi-entry US visa. Can that one person be eligible for the 96-hour visa free transit facility (VFTF) on both the onward and return travel journeys? Please let me know your thoughts on this - thank you!
if one of the family members has US multi-entry visa he is already eligible for VFTF facility valid for 96 for each stay. : Check here: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility If you want to stay in the Singapore twice and explore the city in both the cases, even on your return leg then better apply for a Singapore multi-entry.

Hi i am travelling from mumbai to bali (air india and then jetstar asia)change of terminal from 2 to 4 .Do we need transit visa? i called air india but they were lyk u have to ask this to respective airport authorities.kindly guide me please
well, as far I know Air India has a code-share agreement with Jetstar that being said they have the responsibility to transfer or transport your baggage to Jet star. In this case visa is not required. All terminals of Changi are interconnected with sky trains or monorails so there is no much issue and we can skip immigration. So as long as you are in the transit hall no need for any visa. But again, I would say that speak to a different representative in Air India because their knowledge varies.
Thank you for the informative video! We're traveling to Thailand via Singapore Airlines and have a 10 hour layover at Changi. We're considering taking a Singapore city tour and will require an e-visa, but how do we give proof of accommodation when we are not going to be staying there?
Hi.I am travelling from Delhi to Bali via Singapore with layover of 13 hrs. Airlines-AirIndia-Jetstar. Do i need to apply for e-visa? The PNR number is same for both flights. I contacted Air India for clarification, but they asked me contact the embassy as they are unsure of the visa requirements. Also, the told me that since it’s a different carrier for onward journey, i might need to check-in the luggage again. Please reply.
Well, as far I know both Air India and Jet star has code share agreement. So baggage transfers is the responsibility of the airlines. Also, check your PNR or flight voucher..does it say "self-transfer required".
If you are in transit to or from any third country via Singapore, you are eligible for VFTF. Also cross check here: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility

Hi Sir, travelling to bali via Singapore. Layover of 3:20 hrs. What ahould i do, coz i will arrive at terminal 1 and will have to catch terminal 4 to board on next flight. So im thinking not have check in baggage only handbag. In this case do i need to go via immigration. Will 3 hrs be sufficient to check in again as i m having 2 different pnr or should i book a different flight from Singapore to bali.
While returning back too the layover at Singapore of 6hrs. Im a first time international traveller and i wasn't aware so i booked the low carrier flight. Please guide me to avoid any kind of hassle. Getting eviisa will suffice for both the times or do o have to apply further while returning. Return will be after 7 days. Thank you
Once you arrive at Terminal 1, you’ll need to make your way to Terminal 4 to catch your next flight. Since you're traveling on two different PNRs and possibly different airlines, you may need to clear immigration, collect your baggage (if any), and check in again at Terminal 4.
f you're only carrying a handbag, you may be able to use the airside transfer service without clearing immigration. However, this depends on the airlines' transfer agreements. Check with both airlines in advance to confirm this.
If you're not leaving the transit area and your flights are within the same terminal or you can transfer airside, you typically don’t need to clear immigration, and your e-visa may suffice. However, since you’re on different PNRs, it's safer to be prepared to clear immigration.
Ensure your e-visa allows multiple entries, as you may need to clear immigration and re-enter Singapore. You shouldn’t need an additional visa if you have a valid e-visa covering both entries.
If you’re concerned about the tight connection, especially on separate PNRs, it might be safer to book a later flight from Singapore to Bali. This will give you more time in case of any delays.
Nice information Sir Thank you

Hey, i am travelling to Bali via Singapore having layover of 6 hours. So i am thinking of taking Free Singapore Tour offered by Changi airport my question is

Apply for a singapore visa

Hi. I will be travelling from Jakarta to Hyderabad via Singapore with different PNR and different airlines. Layover is 5 hrs. Do i need a transit Visa?
yes you should have singapore visa in that case. Also, take the same clarification from your airlines because some airlines may have code share agreement and then you are not required worry about clearing the immigration
I'm have a flight to Singapore from Mumbai with air india flight then from there i have another flight from Singapore to shanghai after 8 hour layover on china southern airline.. do i need visa? i booked the ticket through make my trip. when i asked them they told i Don't need visa. but I'm not so confident
see when you book flights it does say self-transfer required or not. As far I know air India does not have code share agreement with Southern China airlines but they do have one with Air China. If your ticket is on the single PNR there should not be any issues. The Changi terminals are well connected with mono rails or skytrains. Do check with Air India as well to confirm.
I have been looking for a direct and clear answer for weeks now but I am still not satisfied. I am traveling from India with an Indian Passport to Taiwan and there’s a layover for around 8hrs in Changi Airport. I do not have any visa other than Taiwanese Visa. Do I need to apply for a Singapore Tourist Visa? I do not intend to leave the transit area. Please clarify. There’s something called VFTF and it says that one needs a visa from UK, US and few other countries to be eligible for VFTF. Do I need this?
Taiwan is not in the list of VFTF firstly, If you are flight is on the single PNR or same airlines then you remain in the transit hall without clearing the immigration and board you next flight.
Im going thailand & Vietnam in upcoming day's and flight PNR is same. & My layover is as Singapore for 11.45 hrs so thinking to go out & explore Singapore... So do i need visa..?
In case you want to explore the city even on the Single PNR then you need a Singapore visa

I land in Terminal 2 and take off from Terminal 3.
Air India has mentioned that they cant comfirm a through baggage check in because of changing terminal.
I want to understand if i need a visa at Singapore for this situation?
Well, Air India and Singapore airlines have code share agreement as far I know, so airlines must be responsible for the baggage transfers. Between, you are also eligble for VFTF transit facility: Check here: www.airindia.com/in/en/travel-information/baggage-guidelines/checked-baggage-allowance.html

well scoot has transfer arrangement with the airport and the singapore airlines so as far I know there is no need for any visa or transit visa in this case. I hope you PNR detail does not specify self-transfer required. You should also verify with Singapore airlines but as far I know no visa is required in this case.

I wanted to enquire whether I will need a transit visa if my entry and departure terminals are different and my layover duration is 7.40 hours also, and I am an Indian passport holder?
Go through your e ticket reciept, bags applicability will be mentioned on it, most probably after first flights itinerary. It will be mentioned with Airport codes.Double PNR sometimes doesnt mean that you will have to check in your bags again.
I have the same issue

We are travelling to bali via singapore but with different PNR for flight to go and flight to come back to Mumbai, so do we require transit visa? We only have one week left
if it is a different PNR flight you may required a visa. Also check if your PNR says self-transfer. Some airlines also have code share arrangements so in that case transfer of your luggage lies in the hands of the airlines but I am not sure which airlines you are choosing. I would also suggest to verify the same with the airlines you are traveling with.

Hi, I have my flight to the US with a layover of 3 days in Singapore.
1. I am eligible for VFTF based on my US Visa. Do I need to apply for an SG arrival card before reaching the airport? or I can just stand in the immigration line and show my US visa?
2. Do I need to show any proof of my stay in Singapore because I am staying for 3 days?
3. what's the best way to use the internet on mobile while I am in Singapore, using roaming on an existing number or taking a travel sim in Singapore?
4. Do we need to collect our luggage in Singapore and check-in with them on the return journey to the US or they can keep the luggage with the airline itself if we don't need the luggage while in singapore? TIA
SG arrival is mandatory for everyone. So anyone who is going to enter the city is required to fill out SG arrival card. They can check proof of accommodation so simpley reserve the hotels and choose pay later options. If you have a single PNR flight the baggage will be delivered at your final destination. You should also check with the airlines because baggage policies can also differ. I think for 3 days you can use your mobile on roaming but do check that your service providers in the US has an arrangement with local providers in Singapore. I think that would be singtel in Singapore.

I have booked Singapore Airlines from US to India.
There is a 12 hours layover.
I understood that I am eligible for VFTF.
But how do I apply for it?
If you are in transit to or from any third country, you may be eligible for the 96-hour visa free transit facility (VFTF) in Singapore if you have a valid onward air ticket departing within 96 hours. You may enter Singapore by any mode of transport but must depart Singapore by air.
Assessment for entry is determined by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officers at the point of entry.
So they will just verify your US Visa and onward journey ticket.

For changing terminals you don't need a transit visa. The airport is well connected with mono rails or sky trains. But I am not sure of the airlines you are traveling with. Some airlines have transfer arrangements or code-sharing so in that case they will be responsible for the baggage transfers. If your PNR says self-transfer then you may require singapore visa OR VFTF is applicable in your case. Also, verify the same with your airlines too.
I am traveling from Chennai to bali and my layover in Singapore is 8 hour and my pnr is same do i need to applt Singapore evisa

I am travelling from Delhi to Bali (DPS) and I have a layover in Singapore of 50 minutes. Do I need transit visa?
not need if it is a single PNR flight or as long as you remain in the transit hall. For 50 mins layover I dont think so that you need to clear the immigration and that means airlines already has transfer arrangements. You must also contact your airlines to verify
Big fan of yours... very informative vides...❤
actually just wanna asked i will travel to Bali via Singapore with different carriers from India to Singapore (Air India) and Singapore to Bali (low budget Jetstar).so in delhi they will give you both flight boarding pass or not...?? and in Singapore have to change T2 to T4 so is there need any visa pls help....
Bhai mujhe bhi btana... traveling in Apr
Dear, In Delhi you will be issued boarding pass of India to Singapore flight (Air India). But if your onward journey from Singapore is also with the same airlines that you receive 2 boarding passes at the airport. For instance, if you opt to choose Singapore airlines. Jetstar and Air India collaborate through code-sharing, allowing seamless transfer of your luggage to Bali. Upon arriving in Singapore, you can obtain your Jetstar boarding pass without the need for a visa. Additionally, you can change terminals while remaining airside. Please also recheck with your airlines to verify.
Ideally, we need a Singapore visa if we have different PNR flights or if it says self-transfer.
So just verify the code-share thing with Air India or Jet star.
I am planning a trip to Tokyo from Dubai. I have valid Japan visa. I live in Dubai with a valid residence permit.
If I want to fly with Singapore Airlines from Dubai -Singapore- Tokyo route will I need any transit visa at the Changi airport transit area? I do not need to enter Singapore. Possible travel date is 19 February 2024.
The flight SQ 495 from DXB to SIN stops at terminal 2 at the Changi airport.
I just need to catch the next connecting flight to Tokyo at the Changi airport. It is the flight no SQ 634 which departs from Terminal 3.
See, Changi airport are well connected with sky trains, mono rails so there is problem I see while transiting. You can still catch your next flight without clearing the immigration and especially, if you are traveling Singapore airlines. They have transfer arrangements at the airport because it is national carrier also it seems you have a single PNR flight. But do re-check the same with the airlines.

I have booked Jetstar - Air India from Kuala Lumpur to Bangalore for my return journey. I have about 16 hours layover at Changi Airport.

I don't intend to stay anywhere, just visit some places and then come back to the airport for my journey back home. So what should I put in those sections?

@@shefalimehta9301 I have not travelled yet but as far I got the inputs, transit visa for Singapore will not be required if PNR is same.
@@priyapandey-k6e can you please help me, as I have also booked the same combination return flight from bali to new delhi and have a halt of 6 hours at sinagoire with change of terminal 4 to terminal 2.
Please let me know whether we require to pass through immigration or not.
If i dont want to explore anything just travel
Hi in transit is it possible if passport is expired within 6 months?
very good question. But here I can say that if your final destination requirements have the criteria where passport validity can be less 6 months then you should be allowed through the immigration. For transit passengers they will always check your requirements for the final destination
Hi .. transit via Singapore to Sydney… indidigo airlines … single pnr but change of planes and terminal … do we need visa ? Indian passport holders
As long as Single PNR and it says that no transit/transfer is required it is ok. What is your second flight? This is my latest video on Singapore transit: ruclips.net/video/e5aNMm9ns_8/видео.html

My Flight From Delhi To Phuket My Layover 22 hours at changi airport My Airline same from both sides Singapore airline…Shall i need visa or i want to exist airport to explore between layover can i exist airport or not
if it is a Singapore airlines and the single PNR flight then no issues your transfers will be taken care by the airlines. It is national carrier so they have transfer arrangements with the Changi airport. You are not required to clear the immigration. But, If you want to explore the city then you need a visa to enter Singapore city.
@@TRAVELMANTODAY Thankyou so much to giving me this valuable information 😊
Hi , I do have a Singapore Airlines flight from Kolkata (CCU) to Singapore Changi airport, there in I have a layover for 3h 45mins . Then from Singapore I have an Air Canada Flight to Vancouver YVR international airport. Both are different carriers but connecting flight. So this case will I be needing a e-visa just for the layover

Thank you for this info, very helpful. One query I have, we are travelling to Bali via Singapore with different PNR, there is transit at both times to and fro. Do we need multiple entry Singapore Visa or single?
Which month?
I have Singapore multiple entry visa. Can I stay in Singapore just for 1 day and fly next day to philphilnes. Will Singapore immigration allow me to stay just 1 day ??
yes bro you can
I have a query regarding the transit visa-
I am traveling from Kolkata CCU (INDIA) to Singapore by INDIGO Airlines on the 14th of March while my next flight is to Auckland (NEW ZEALAND) the very same day in the evening at 1800. My PNRs are different for both legs, I have a 10-year US visa along with a 1-year New Zealand Visa on my passport. Am I eligible for a visa that will let me stay in a hotel in Singapore for that day?
My return journey is from Auckland to Singapore on the 29th of March by Air New Zealand after which I fly to Kolkata CCU (INDIA) on an INDIGO flight which is after 12 hours with different PNRs. I have the same question here-
Am I eligible for a visa that will let me stay in a hotel in Singapore for that day as well?
This will apply to my wife as well who is traveling with me on the same flight while she has the same visas

Hi, I am traveling to Phuket via Singapore from Bengaluru and the layover is around 8 hrs at Changi airport. My flight is booked from Singapore Airlines to Phuket, but different PNR. Do I need a visa or can transit easily within terminals 1 to 4? Would really appreciate it if you could guide me as I have tried reaching out to many authorities.TIA
Scenario -1: Well, firstly, when you booked your flight or while booking does your itinerary says "self-transfer is required". If that is the case, then immigration clearance would be needed.
Scenario -2: If it is a different PNR flight then immigration clearance or visa is needed. Some airlines have code sharing agreements between then OR Transfer arrangements with the airport, so baggage transfer responsibility would be on them and in such a cases you can skip the immigration at Singapore airport- which does not seem to be a case here and I am not sure which airlines you are traveling from India. For instance, if you have Air India flight to Singapore and Singapore airlines to Phuket then Air India & Singapore airlines have code share agreements.
On the other hand, if both the airlines have code share agreements then for which route, for instance, Air India or Singapore airlines have code share agreements on following routes:
Kolkata - Singapore - Kolkata
Singapore - Bangkok - Singapore
Singapore - Kuala Lumpur - Singapore
Singapore - San Francisco - Singapore
Singapore - Los Angeles - Singapore
Scenerio-3: See, the Changi airport is well connected with mono rails and all the terminals are well connected to each other and you can change terminals without immigration clearance as long as you remain in the transit hall and wait for your next flight. But, in your case you have a different PNR flight so you should apply for a visa.
Please do try to reach out to Singapore airlines and Air India as well to verify the same. But if you do not have clarity from both the airlines then better apply for a visa.

Hi i am traveling from Dubai layover in singapore for 6hours to macau. Do i need a transit visa if i dont want to leave airport to explore the city? Do i need to go to the Immigration for some documents entering Macau? Philippine passport holder here.
if you dont leave the airport and remain in the transit hall then no visa is required or as long as you have a single PNR flight
Hi Sir - this is an excellent video with the requisite clarification 👍 I have 2 queries:
1. Planning to travel with family of 5 members to Bali through Singapore and a Singapore city visit during layover. I understand that Singapore eVisa is required, so I will apply for single entry Singapore visa. Also, during the return journey from Bali, I have a layover at Singapore and may want to do another Singapore city visit during layover on the return journey - is it required to apply for another Singapore eVisa for this 2nd city visit on return layover?
2. In the above travel to Bali, one family member has a valid long term multi-entry US visa. Can that one person be eligible for the 96-hour visa free transit facility (VFTF) on both the onward and return travel journeys?
Please let me know your thoughts on this - thank you!
if one of the family members has US multi-entry visa he is already eligible for VFTF facility valid for 96 for each stay. : Check here: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility
If you want to stay in the Singapore twice and explore the city in both the cases, even on your return leg then better apply for a Singapore multi-entry.
Hlo sir,

Hi i am travelling from mumbai to bali (air india and then jetstar asia)change of terminal from 2 to 4 .Do we need transit visa? i called air india but they were lyk u have to ask this to respective airport authorities.kindly guide me please
well, as far I know Air India has a code-share agreement with Jetstar that being said they have the responsibility to transfer or transport your baggage to Jet star. In this case visa is not required. All terminals of Changi are interconnected with sky trains or monorails so there is no much issue and we can skip immigration. So as long as you are in the transit hall no need for any visa. But again, I would say that speak to a different representative in Air India because their knowledge varies.
Thank you for the informative video! We're traveling to Thailand via Singapore Airlines and have a 10 hour layover at Changi. We're considering taking a Singapore city tour and will require an e-visa, but how do we give proof of accommodation when we are not going to be staying there?
proof of accommodation is not required in this case, if you take the free city tour. The tour lasts for 5-7 hours at max
i have student(D) visa of Germany, not a tourist(C) visa am i eligible for VFTF?
Hi.I am travelling from Delhi to Bali via Singapore with layover of 13 hrs. Airlines-AirIndia-Jetstar. Do i need to apply for e-visa? The PNR number is same for both flights. I contacted Air India for clarification, but they asked me contact the embassy as they are unsure of the visa requirements. Also, the told me that since it’s a different carrier for onward journey, i might need to check-in the luggage again.
Please reply.
Well, as far I know both Air India and Jet star has code share agreement. So baggage transfers is the responsibility of the airlines. Also, check your PNR or flight voucher..does it say "self-transfer required".
Hi did you get any clarification? Mine is same case.
Vftf will also be eligible from ind - Singapore- Australia ?
If you are in transit to or from any third country via Singapore, you are eligible for VFTF. Also cross check here: www.ica.gov.sg/enter-transit-depart/entering-singapore/visa-free-transit-facility
