VISA FEES

of the outcome of the application or if you withdraw the application after
submission.

The visa processing fee of $30 Singapore dollars is non-refundable. Our
Authorised Visa Agents are permitted to charge a service fee of Rs.500 on top of
the visa processing fee.All fees are paid upon the application of the visa.

 

IMPORTANT NOTICES

1.    Incomplete forms and/or documents submitted may result in the application
being rejected or the processing delayed.

2.    Every application for a visa, including the duration of the visa granted,
will be considered on its own merits and subject to approval.

3.    Possession of a visa does not guarantee entry into Singapore. The granting
of entry into Singapore is determined by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority
(ICA) officers at the point of entry. Visitors must also meet entry requirements
such as holding a valid passport, sufficient funds for the period of stay in
Singapore and confirmed onward/return air ticket (if applicable).

4.    The validity of the visa refers to the period where the holder may seek
entry into Singapore. The duration of stay is determined by ICA officers on duty
at the respective checkpoints. 

5.         A Singapore visa is not an immigration pass. It is a pre-entry
permission for the holder of a valid Singapore visa to travel to, and seek
entry, into Singapore. The grant of an immigration pass will be determined by
the ICA officers at the point of entry. Possession of a valid visa alone does
not guarantee entry into Singapore.

The period of stay granted is shown on the visit pass endorsement given on your
passport and it is not tied to the validity of your visa.

 

VISA TRANSFER

Holders with a valid visa of 3 months or more in their old passport may transfer
their existing visa to their new passport. Please submit your documents to our
Authorised Visa Agents who will charge you a processing fee of Rs.500. Please
note that transfer applications are only accepted on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Thursdays.

Travellers are reminded to transfer their valid visa to their new passport
before commencing their journey to Singapore to avoid any delays in their
travel.

 

CHECKING STATUS OF VISA APPLICATION

you had already been issued with a valid visa but misplaced the copy of your
e-Visa, you can also follow the same steps to print a copy of your e-Visa.
