Singapore visa for Australian citizens
No visa for business or social visits. You still file the SG Arrival Card before you land.
Singapore visa requirements for Australian citizens
Australian passport holders do not need a visa to enter Singapore for business or social visits, according to Singapore's High Commission in Canberra. What you do need is the SG Arrival Card, submitted online in the 3 days before you arrive (the arrival day counts), and a passport valid for at least six months. Singapore does not publish a fixed number of visa-free days for Australians: the immigration officer decides your stay at the checkpoint, and it appears on the e-Pass that ICA emails you after entry.
SG Arrival Card: the online arrival and health declaration every Australian traveler, children included, submits in the 3 days before arrival. It is not a visa.

Very easy at gate. NOTE HOWEVER as you enter Singapore immediately before the gate , a huge sign indicates that all entrants (including Singapore citizens) must fill in the entry form. We started doing this not knowing that we were simply duplication the i-visa we had completed on line. The notice was misleading - we could have gone straight through (which we eventually did).
iVisa was an easy online process but took a little extra time than the 24 hour standard process so would recommend taking this into account.
The link via their website was easy to follow. We filled in while awaiting departure for Singapore. We probably should have done it earlier but we had no issues.
It was so easy and so quick and I didn’t have to fill in a form
the process of ivisa was a straight forward, and easy to understand. it is also very quick
Easy to use and the option of how quickly you require your visa.
Site was easy to use, easy to upload documents and regular updates sent.
Official forms are always a little intimidating. The Singapore online entry permit application form is incredibly straightforward and user friendly. The turn around time was also very fast.
Simple process using the passport photo autofill option. Received within 5 minutes 1hr 55minutes ahead of schedule
The lady that attended me was so kind, helpful and obliging - I thank her.

Do Australians need a visa for Singapore?
No, not for business or social visits. Singapore's High Commission in Canberra confirms that Australian passport holders can enter without a visa for those purposes. You still need to submit the SG Arrival Card in the 3 days before you land.
How long can Australians stay in Singapore without a visa?
Singapore doesn't publish a fixed number of days for Australians. The ICA officer at the checkpoint decides, and the High Commission in Canberra advises you to check your Visit Pass and the number of days granted before you leave the checkpoint. The e-Pass emailed to you after entry shows your last day of stay.
Do Australians need a visa for a business trip to Singapore?
No. The no-visa rule covers business visits as well as social visits such as holidays and family trips. Bring the same documents: a passport valid for at least six months, your SG Arrival Card and, where applicable, an onward or return ticket.
Do Australians need a return ticket to enter Singapore?
Have one ready. Singapore's entry conditions for Australian passport holders include a confirmed onward or return ticket where applicable, plus enough funds for your stay.

At least six months. Singapore's High Commission in Canberra lists a passport valid for at least six months as an entry requirement, so renew first if yours expires sooner.
