Good to know
- The SG Arrival Card replaces the paper arrival card. You submit your personal and trip details online before you arrive.
- It is run by Singapore's Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA), and the official address is on the ICA e-services site.
- Submit within 3 days before arrival, counting the day you arrive. You can use the ICA website or the MyICA app, and both are free.
- ICA warns that paid third-party submission services are not affiliated with it. The card also includes an electronic health declaration, and a new version is moving into the MyICA app from 30 September 2026, so update the app first.
How to submit
- Open the official site from the button on this page, not from a search ad.
- Keep your passport, flight details and accommodation address ready.
- Fill in the form during the allowed window.
- Save the confirmation or QR code as a screenshot, and print it if you can.
- Show the confirmation at check-in or immigration if you are asked.
Common mistakes
- Paying a third-party site. The official form is free.
- Submitting outside the allowed window, which can cause the form to be rejected.
- Typing details that do not match your passport exactly.
- Assuming that no visa means no arrival card. They are separate.
