Participants are strongly advised to make sure they fulfill all legal requirements to enter Singapore. Besides a valid passport, an entry visa may also be required. Please visit the official website of the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority of Singapore  to find out whether, depending on your citizenship, country of long-term residence, and the duration and reasons for your stay, you need a visa to enter Singapore. Generally, foreigners who do not require visas for entry and are visiting Singapore as tourists may be given up to 30-day social visit passes upon their arrival in Singapore.

It is highly recommended to start the process a minimum of 2 ½ months prior to your arrival in Singapore. Please contact your nearest Singaporean consulate or embassy in your country of residence for further information.
