Travelloling to Singapore during Covid time

Singapore announces major easing of Covid-19 rules from April 26. However, please note the below points to ensure that you have a smooth transit experience to travel to Singapore during Covid time:

Fully vaccinated travelers with WHO-EUL vaccines and travelers aged 12 and below (i.e., born in or after 2010) will have to take a pre-departure test (PDT) before leaving for Singapore. Travelers should submit the SG Arrival Card electronically no earlier than three days before arrival in Singapore.

Non-fully vaccinated travelers entering Singapore will be required to take a PDT within two days before departure to Singapore. PDT can combine a COVID-19 PCR test at an internationally accredited or recognized lab/clinic/medical facility or Antigen Rapid Test (ART) administered by a trained professional (self-swabs are not allowed).

The PDT result must not be handwritten and must be in English (or accompanied by a notarized English translation), containing the COVID-19 PCR test results and date of the test, traveler’s name as per passport, and either date of birth or passport number as per passport. In addition to the PDT and submission of the SG Arrival Card, non-fully vaccinated travelers must do a 7-day Stay-Home-Notice (SHN) at a declared place of accommodation and an SHN-exit PCR test.

Do note that travelers holding passports or travel documents issued by visa-required countries/regions must still apply for an entry visa to enter Singapore.

Transportation to travel to Singapore during Covid time

Subway

The MRT subway system is comfortable, clean, and inexpensive. It’s everything you want from public transportation. What you always need is a Map at every station. Fares are based on the distance you travel and usually range from SG$1 to SG$2.50 (about $0.74 to $1.85). Instead of purchasing single-fare tickets, consider purchasing an EZ-Link rechargeable card for SG$12 (about $9) to save some extra coins and avoid ticket lines if you’re in Singapore for an extended period.

Car

Home to more than 5 million people, Singapore has some traffic. Driving can be a huge hassle, and parking will cost you an arm and a leg in the city. Not to mention driving is done on the left in Singapore. However, rental offices are at the airport and throughout the city, if you want a car.

Taxi

If you’d like to get some places in a hurry, pick a taxi. Taxis are relatively well priced: The meter starts between SG$3 to SG$5 (about $2.24 to $3.75) and around SG$ 0.22 (about $0.16) per kilometer after that. Most drivers will speak English, so chat with them for local tips.

Bus

Buses traverse the entire country and can take you everywhere you need to go. That is, if you know which ones to take. The numerous bus routes may overwhelm or confuse first-time visitors. Fares are based on the distance traveled, time of day, and traveler type (adult, children, and senior citizen fares). Based on all those factors, you could spend the exact amount that you would for a metro ride.

If you are nervous about communicating with native speakers, calling the driver, and paying, contact us to reserve a car in advance.
