Singapore Travel Advice

Passport & Visas

Depending on your nationality, you may need a visa to enter Singapore. Many countries enjoy visa-free access or visa-on-arrival for short visits. Check the specific requirements for your nationality on the official website of the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority of Singapore or contact the nearest Singaporean embassy or consulate.

Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended date of departure from Singapore. This is a standard requirement in many countries and helps prevent any issues during your stay.

When to Go

The high season and also the best time to visit Singapore in terms of weather, typically falls between the months of June and August. During this period, Singapore experiences its dry season, characterized by lower rainfall and consistently warm temperatures. The skies are generally clear, and the humidity is slightly lower compared to other times of the year. These favorable weather conditions make it an ideal time for outdoor activities, sightseeing, and exploring the city-state’s vibrant cultural events.

While it is considered the high season, it’s essential to note that Singapore’s climate remains relatively consistent throughout the year, making it a year-round destination.

The shoulder seasons in Singapore, occurring from February to April and September to early November, offer a pleasant compromise between the high tourist season and the occasional rainfall of the monsoon months. During these periods, Singapore experiences transitional weather, with a mix of sunny days and short rain showers. The temperatures are relatively consistent, and the humidity is moderate, providing comfortable conditions for outdoor exploration.

This makes it an excellent time to visit popular attractions, enjoy outdoor festivals, and partake in various cultural events. The shoulder seasons allow travelers to experience the best of both worlds – avoiding the peak crowds while still enjoying favorable weather conditions for a delightful and diverse Singaporean experience.
