Precautions for entering Singapore: Precautions for carrying cash.

Recently, something happened in Singapore Customs, which is very worrying. That is, a person carrying a large amount of cash into customs without declaration was fined! When traveling, you will always encounter the problem of cash. So, do you know how much cash you should bring? Something I like, can I take it away?

There are rules for bringing cash into and out of Singapore. If you bring too much money, you will be questioned. If you bring too little money, you may be locked in a dark room! Take Singapore as an example. Although there is no clear stipulation on the minimum amount of cash to carry, it means that tourists must carry enough travel expenses, which need to cover all the expenses needed during the trip except hotel and air tickets, ranging from S $ 100 to S $ 150 every day. If you don't have enough cash with you, the Singapore Immigration Bureau has reason to repatriate people.

Goods exceeding the duty-free amount must be declared and paid. According to Singapore's 20 19 budget, the consumption tax exemption for less than 48 hours after leaving Singapore is reduced from S $ 150 to S $ 100. Go abroad for more than 48 hours, from S $600 to S $500.

From April 1 day, the capacity limit of duty-free liquor will be lowered from the current 3 to 2 liters, and the duty-free preferential treatment for spirits will still be limited to 1 liter.

Those who evade service tax (GST) may be fined up to 20 times as much as tax evasion and/or imprisoned up to two years.

Precautions for bringing articles into Singapore Singapore Customs also has strict regulations on these articles, so pay more attention when carrying them.

Meat can carry up to 5 kilograms of meat, but it must come from an officially recognized country/region! Attention! China is not on the list of countries that can import raw meat. In Singapore, we can only eat meat processed by institutions recognized by AVA, such as sausages. Therefore, it is illegal to bring raw meat, sausages and trotters into the country without permission!

This explains the ultimate question of eating goods: Why is it so difficult to buy China's meat in Singapore?

Tobacco products cigarettes are prohibited from being imported. All tobacco products, including cigarettes printed with the word "SDPC" and vertical lines, need to be declared. If an individual brings cigarettes into Singapore and fails to declare them truthfully or fails to declare them, no matter 1 cigarette, the legendary 19 cigarette or 108000 cigarette, he will be punished.

Drugs. Drugs are not allowed. If you need to carry more toxic drugs, such as diazepam or codeine, you need to get it from the Singapore Health Science Bureau (Health

Scientific authority) approval. Drugs such as sleeping pills and sedatives need to be certified by doctors as essential drugs for passengers before they can be carried.

In addition, many netizens asked how many cigarettes they could bring into Singapore. You can't smoke. In the past, the method of unpacking a box of cigarettes with 19 cigarettes was not duty-free. Well, to be precise, you can bring cigarettes into the country, but you have to pay a high cigarette tax at the customs.

There are also many netizens who will say, in fact, I also brought sausages or other things you said you couldn't bring into the country. Well, actually, it's their right to investigate you, confiscate you or fine you according to regulations. Just because you haven't been checked once doesn't mean you haven't been checked. If things are not expensive, you can try your luck. If it is expensive, it is not worth the risk.
