Singapore Short-Term Visit Pass

A Short-Term Visit Pass is the immigration pass that the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority grants when you are allowed into Singapore for a short visit — for example tourism or visiting family. ICA now issues it digitally as an electronic pass (e-Pass). The period of stay is decided by the officer at the checkpoint and is not tied to the validity of any entry visa. A Short-Term Visit Pass does not permit business, professional or paid work in Singapore — those require the appropriate work pass. Follow the official ICA guidance for your situation.
