Important precautions

Incomplete forms, non-standard materials or non-compliance with requirements may lead to visa refusal or delay in acceptance.

Whether the visa application is approved and the validity period of the approval shall be decided by the visa officer according to the applicant's personal situation.

Applicants should purchase air tickets after their visas are approved. The museum is not responsible for the economic losses caused by the failure to obtain a visa due to the purchase of air tickets in advance.

The issuing date of the visa is generally the application date of the unit/travel agency designated by the library. Once the visa is issued, the validity period remains unchanged. Applicants should not submit application materials too early. If the visa has expired, the applicant must resubmit the application materials. Applicants should carefully check the date of issuance and validity of the visa when receiving it. Applicants are advised to submit their applications one to two weeks before going abroad, or check with the designated unit/travel agency of our library about the date when they can submit their applications.

Visa holders are not necessarily allowed to enter Singapore. Visa holders must meet the entry requirements, such as a valid passport, sufficient funds and round-trip air tickets (if necessary). Singapore immigration and customs officials have the right to decide whether they can enter the country.

Officials of Singapore Immigration and Checkpoints Authority decide the number of days for visa holders to stay when they enter the country. Applicants should pay attention to the entry stamp of the passport and the approved stay period.
