Singaporean visa policy for Chinese citizens

Chinese citizens don't need a visa to travel to Singapore for short stays of up to 30 days. Even though no visa is required, all Chinese travelers must complete the Singapore Arrival Card (SG Arrival Card). This is a mandatory online entry declaration and does not replace a visa for nationalities that require one.

iVisa offers one Singapore entry document for Chinese travelers:

Singapore Arrival Card (SG Arrival Card): A mandatory online arrival declaration that Chinese citizens must submit within 3 days before arrival. After entry, travelers receive an Electronic Visit Pass (e-Pass) by email showing the permitted length of stay.

General Singapore entry requirements for Chinese travelers are:
Chinese passport valid for at least 6 months
Completed SG Arrival Card
Proof of onward or return travel
Evidence of sufficient funds
Yellow fever vaccination certificate (if arriving from a risk country)
Other supporting documents depending on purpose or situation

Frequently asked questions about getting the Singapore visa with a China passport

Do Chinese citizens need a visa to enter Singapore?

No, not for up to 30 days. However, they must have completed the SG Arrival Card.

What is the maximum stay that Chinese citizens can receive in Singapore?

Chinese citizens are usually granted a short-term Visit Pass of up to 14 or 30 days, depending on individual circumstances and immigration assessment. The exact duration is stated on the electronic Visit Pass (e-Pass) issued after entry.

What is the SG Arrival Card, and is it mandatory for Chinese travelers?

Yes. All Chinese citizens must submit the SG Arrival Card online within 3 days before arrival. This is not a visa, but a mandatory entry declaration that includes health and travel information. Failure to submit it may delay immigration clearance.

How does e-Pass issuance work for Chinese citizens entering Singapore?

Singapore no longer issues physical passport stamps. After clearing immigration, Chinese travelers receive an electronic Visit Pass (e-Pass) by email, which shows their permitted length of stay. It is recommended to save a printout of this e-Pass for reference during your stay.

Can Chinese citizens extend their stay in Singapore?

In some cases, Chinese visitors may apply to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) for an extension of their short-term Visit Pass before it expires. Extensions are not guaranteed and depend on travel history, purpose of stay, and compliance with entry conditions.
