We wish to inform that currently, only parents, spouse and unmarried children below 21 years old of Singapore citizens and permanent residents are eligible to submit the applications for long term Social Visit Pass (3 months or more) at ICA when they are in Singapore for consideration. Each application will be considered on its own merits. Applicants will be notified on the date of collection upon submission of the application and the validity of SVPs upon approval.
3 Upon arrival in Singapore, visitors are generally granted a 14-day or 30-day Social Visit Pass if they are able to meet our entry requirements, which include, holding a valid passport with at least six months validity, entry visas (if applicable), confirmed return/onward tickets, sufficient funds for the period of stay in Singapore and entry facilities, including visas, to their onward destinations. The issue of a pass is at the discretion of Immigration & Checkpoints Authority officers at the time of arrival at Singapore checkpoints.
4 All foreigners who are in Singapore for the purpose of social visit or attending short business negotiations and discussions and require a short extension of stay may submit their applications for extension of Social Visit Pass for our consideration, at Visitor Services Centre, 4th Storey, ICA Building. Each application will be considered on its own merits.
