Do I Need a Visa for Singapore from India?
For Indian passport holders · Updated March 2026
Visa Details
A visa is required for Indian passport holders to enter Singapore. The visa needs to be obtained through eligible authorized travel agencies or through local sponsors (Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents). Going through local sponsors is generally easier and faster. Indian nationals who are entering Singapore by any mode of transport but departing only via air or sea, and having a valid visa or long-term pass with at least 1 month validity from the entry date from countries such as Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, UK, US, and Switzerland, who are in transit to or from any third country, are eligible for a 96-hour Visa-Free Transit Facility (VFTF).
