Longer SHN for travellers from India
Due to an escalating Covid-19 crisis in India, authorities have updated border measures in Singapore.
With emerging new virus variants and a worsening situation, travellers from India will have to serve 7 more days of SHN on top of their 14-day stay.
There will be reduced entry approvals for non-Singapore Citizens as well as Permanent Residents.
The prolonged SHN will take effect for travellers arriving from India from 22 Apr at 11.59pm.
Meanwhile, travellers from Hong Kong need only serve a 7-day SHN as opposed to a 14-day one.
In the same announcement, authorities said that travellers from the United Kingdom and South Africa will no longer be barred from entering Singapore.
