* Vaccination Requirements for Entry via the Work Pass Holder General Lane
(WPHL)
As a condition for entry into Singapore, pass holders with an approval under the
Work Pass Holder General Lane (WPHL) must comply with the prevailing travel
health control measures (e.g. Stay-Home Notice (SHN) and COVID-19 tests).
Employers and employment agencies, which submitted the entry applications
(“Submitters”), must pay for pass holders’ entry charges and ensure they comply
with the measures.
Workers who meet all three of the conditions below, please refer to Ministry of
Manpower’s website instead for the travel health control measures:
a) Work in the Construction, Marine shipyard or Process (CMP sector);
b) Hold Work Permit, Training Work Permit or S Pass, or in-principle approval
for any of these 3 passes; and
c) Not entering Singapore with their dependants
For all other pass holders (work pass holders and their dependants), this page
explains the travel health control measures that apply to them when travelling
to Singapore. The measures are based on the pass holders’ travel history, and
will be stated on their entry approval letters. The health measures are split
into 4 categories (Category I/II/III/IV).
!! Important Notes
➀ If the pass holder has visited multiple countries in the past 14 days before
arriving in Singapore, the most stringent category out of all the
countries/regions visited (excluding transits less than 24 hours) will apply.
Example: A traveller with travel history to both Categories (I) and (II)
countries/regions before departure, and transited through a Category (IV)
country/region on the flight to Singapore, will be subject to Category (II)
measures.
➁ These workers are not allowed to apply for entry into Singapore under the
Vaccinated Travel Lanes (Air/Land):
1. Non-Malaysian male Work Permit or S Pass workers in the CMP sector
2. Workers staying in dormitories
Companies can still bring in such workers under:
1. For CMP workers- MOM’s entry approval or ongoing industry initiatives for
the CMP sectors
2. For all other workers- WPHL
Those who had obtained a VTL approval before 4 Dec 2021, 2359 hours can still
enter Singapore. Find out more.
Workers can depart Singapore using VTLs.
➂ All pass holders need to take these tests:
1. COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test (ART) or PCR test within 2 days before
departure. Self-swabs are not allowed.
2. On-arrival COVID-19 PCR test in Singapore
Example: If the pre-departure test was taken on 5 Dec 2021, it will be valid for
departures (for air/sea checkpoints) or arrivals (for land checkpoint) up to 7
Dec 2021, 2359 hours.
Workers with travel history to Category II, III or IV countries/regions and
entering Singapore from 7 Jan 2022, 2359 hours, do not need to take an
on-arrival COVID-19 test. For refunds of this test, please refer to the FAQ here
for more information.
➃ Pass holders below three years of age in this calendar year are not required
to take the COVID-19 tests listed in the tables below.
➄ All pass holders are not allowed to serve SHN or self-isolation in
dormitories. Submitter may refer to this list (non-exhaustive) to book a hotel
or serviced apartment for the pass holder. Please check if they can accommodate
guests on SHN or self-isolation.
➅ All pass holders entering under WPHL, regardless of travel history, must be
fully vaccinated before arrival except for the following groups:
1. Pass holders who are below 18 years old on date of entry
2. Pass holders who cannot be vaccinated due to medical conditions
