Australian Visa Information

Unless you are an Australian citizen, you will need a valid Australian visa to enter the country. New Zealand passport holders can apply for a visa upon arrival in the country. All other passport holders, regardless of age, must apply for a visa before leaving home. You can apply for a range of Australian visa types, including tourist visas and working holiday visas, via the ETA app or on the  Department of Home Affairs website.

There are different Australian visa types available for travellers to Australia. Knowing which Australian visa to apply for depends on the length of your stay, your passport and the purpose of your visit. You’ll also need to meet certain financial and medical requirements, be outside of Australia when applying and maintain health insurance for the duration of your stay. 

Electronic Travel Authority visa  (subclass 601) This visa allows you to visit Australia as many times as you want, for up to a year, and stay for three months each visit. This visa is available to passport holders from a number of countries and regions, who live outside Australia. A step-by-step guide on how to apply is  here .

All ETA-eligible passport holders must apply for an ETA using the Australian ETA app. Agents can assist you in the application process, but you must be physically present as a live facial image is required.

eVisitor  (subclass 651) This is a free visa for multiple visits to Australia for tourism or business purposes for up to three months at a time within a 12-month period. This visa is available to passport holders from a number of European countries and it cannot be extended.

Visitor visa  (subclass 600) The Visitor visa allows you to visit Australia, either for tourism or business purposes. It is open to all nationalities. Generally, a period of stay of up to three months is granted, but up to 12 months may be granted in certain circumstances. Applicants will have to pay a fee to submit their application.

The application process may differ depending on which visa you need.

You can only apply for the  Electronic Travel Authority visa  (subclass 601) through the Australian ETA app. A step-by-step guide on how to apply is located  here .

For other visas, you can apply online by creating an ImmiAccount and completing the application process. Be sure to submit your application well in advance of your travel date to allow enough time for processing. You may be asked to provide further supporting information. You will be notified in writing if your tourist visa is approved and it will be digitally linked to your passport. For more information on different visa types, and Australian visa requirements including how to apply for an Australian visa, visit the  Department of Home Affairs  website.

If you are already in Australia and hold a valid Electronic Travel Authority visa (subclass 601) you can extend your stay by applying for another visa, such as a Visitor visa (subclass 600). An eVisitor (subclass 651) cannot be extended.

See the Department of Home Affairs website for details.

Working Holiday Visas

Australia's Working Holiday Maker program allows visitors aged under 30 (or 35 in certain cases) who hold a passport from a participating country to travel and work in Australia. Working holiday visas are valid for one year, or up to three years if you meet certain conditions.

Applying for an Australian Tourist Visa – Step By Step Process:

Here are the steps and requirements for your Australian tourist visa application through the Australian Visa Application Centre (AVAC):

Requirements:

For the specified reason/s above- classified under Subclass 600 , all those who wish to visit Australia are required to completely fill out form 1419 which you can download here along with a copy of the Subclass 600 checklist which you can get here to apply for an Australian tourist visa.

  • Provide any of the following: National Registration ID Card (NRIC) , Employment Pass, Social Visit Pass, Dependent Pass, Student Pass, or Work Permit

  • For employed individuals: a letter from your employer indicating your employment status, your length of employment, salary and position, your approved leave dates, and whether your leave is compensated or not. If you plan to go on an extended leave from work, the letter should also indicate if your job would still be available to you on your return (specify business registration, if applicable). For those who have just recently started with a new job, consider preparing a similar document to support your recent employment and salary history.
  • If you are unemployed and are married: present your marriage certificate, and documents that will serve as proof of your spouse’s employment status and income (as detailed in the previous point)
  • If married or in a de facto spouse relationship where your spouse is also not concurrently applying for visa: prepare a copy of your spouse’s passport’s identity page.

Procedures:

  • Identify the visa subclass that is appropriate for the purpose of your visit in Australia.
  • Prepare all the required documents to support your application.

Note: Make sure to submit all supporting documents at the time of your application to avoid unnecessary delays .

  • Prepare your payments for your application as well as for the service charges. To check the updated list of visa application fees and service charges, check out the VFS Global Website .
  • Set an appointment online to submit your visa application and requirements (including your biometric data) at the AVAC.

  • Submit your visa application either by mail or in person. The Australian Visa Application Cantre can be located at:

135 Cecil Street #08-01 MYP Plaza Singapore 069536

As mentioned, filing your visa application should be done at least two months before your travel date. It’s also important that you turn in all the required documents at the time of your application.

And as a final tip: Remember that the seasons in Australia are quite the opposite from the Northern hemisphere so be properly advised.

Australia entry requirements for Singaporean Citizens

All Singaporean nationals must obtain a visa to travel to Australia . When visiting on holiday, for business, or when transiting through the country, they can apply for the Australian Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) .

You can apply for this convenient travel authorisation rapidly through the online platform.

Basic information about ETA for Singapore

The Australian ETA for Singapore is an electronic visa that can be obtained online in a matter of minutes.

Since Singaporean applicants receive their visa by email , there is no need to contact an Australian embassy or consulate before travelling.

australia entry requirements for singaporean

Permitted travel purposes with an Australian ETA from Singapore

Singaporean travellers can use the ETA when travelling to Australia for one of the following reasons:

  • Tourism or leisure
  • To see family or friends
  • Business (meetings, conferences, seminars, courses)
  • Short-term volunteering (this must not be the main reason for travelling to Australia)

Can Singaporeans use an ETA to work in Australia?

No. Singaporean nationals cannot use their ETA to engage in paid work in Australia.

Can Singaporean citizens get a visa on arrival in Australia?

Unlike some other countries, Australia does not offer visas on arrival. This means that travellers from Singapore cannot get an ETA at the airport . They must hold a valid visa before arriving at the border crossing.

Health and safety requirements to get an Australian ETA from Singapore

Singaporeans who intend to travel to Australia must be in good health . They should not require extensive treatments that would restrict access to medical services for Australian citizens. In addition, they must not suffer from medical conditions that could compromise the safety of the Australian population.

Other than meeting the above health requirements, Singaporeans visiting Australia must not have a criminal record with serious offences or convictions with a prison sentence of 12 months or more.

Singaporean citizens are required to answer health and security-related questions as part of their ETA application process.

Australian ETA processing time for Singaporean applicants

Singaporean candidates will receive an email confirmation as soon as they submit the application.

The Australian ETA processing time is up to 24 hours , unless there are mistakes or discrepancies in the application form. In this case, candidates are asked to start a new application process and pay another visa processing fee.

What should Singaporean travellers do after they receive the ETA for Australia?

Singaporean applicants are advised to print the Australian ETA . They should be prepared to present it, along with a valid passport, at the border crossing.

Please note that having an ETA does not guarantee entry into Australia from Singapore. This right is determined by the border immigration officials at the port of entry, after having examined the passenger’s travel documentation.

Travellers from Singapore can check the status of their ETA application at any time by following the link included in the confirmation email.

Validity of ETA for Australia from Singapore

The validity of Australian ETA for Singapore is one year from the date of the issue .

The Australian ETA is a multiple entry visa that can be used for any number of trips within its validity period. The duration of each trip must not exceed 90 days (3 months).

Can Singaporean nationals renew their ETA for Australia?

No. The Australian ETA cannot be renewed. Singaporean visitors who would like to extend their trip have two different options:

  • They can apply for another ETA from outside of Australia at least two weeks before their visa expiration date
  • They can apply for another type of Australian visa suitable for longer stays

What are the consequences of overstaying an Australian ETA for Singapore?

Overstaying an Australian ETA is strictly against the law . Depending on the number of days overstayed, Singaporean travellers may be required to pay fines and even lose the right to obtain another Australian visa in the future.

Prop tips / Insider tips

  • If your passport expires before the ETA, you will have to apply for a new one.
  • Australia is really strict about items brought into the country. To be safe, don’t bring anything edible or items made of animal products with you. We found out even ‘Milo’ has been confiscated before. ☹
  • Some travel agents can get you an ETA for a much lower price.
  • If you’re traveling in a group and applying for a visa at AVAC, you have to make a separate appointment online for each person.

The grant of an immigration pass will be determined by the ICA officers at the point of entry. Possession of a valid visa alone does not guarantee entry into Singapore.

The period of stay granted is shown on the visit pass endorsement given on your passport and it is not tied to the validity of your visa.

Violent crime against tourists is rare.

Pickpocketing and street theft happens at the airport, tourist destinations, hotels and on public transport.

Watch your belongings, especially in tourist areas and on public transport.

Scams and fraud

Impersonation scams happen.

Calls ask for personal details and often use scare tactics (such as claiming you have committed an offence or have account issues). You should hang up immediately if the caller cannot identify themselves correctly. Always verify the information or request through official websites or call the company/department hotline before offering any personal information. Delete text messages quickly. 

Property rental  scams  happen.

Con artists pretend to be landlords on property websites and offer fake rental properties.

Get details of a rental property, including the owner, from the following:

  • Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore

To protect yourself from property scams:

  • research the property and landlord before agreeing to a property rental or purchase contract
  • don't make large payments in cash
  • only use accredited property agents
  • make sure landlords and agents are present when you sign tenancy documents

If you're affected, lodge a complaint through the  Scam Alert website . 

If you live in Singapore, go to the  Consumers Association of Singapore .

Cyber security

You may be at risk of cyber-based threats during overseas travel to any country. Digital identity theft is a growing concern. Your devices and personal data can be compromised, especially if you’re connecting to Wi-Fi, using or connecting to shared or public computers, or to Bluetooth.

Social media can also be risky in destinations where there are social or political tensions, or laws that may seem unreasonable by Australian standards. Travellers have been arrested for things they have said on social media. Don't comment on local or political events on your social media.

More information: 

  • Cyber security when travelling overseas

Terrorist attacks could happen in Singapore. Attacks could be random and may affect places that Westerners frequent. 

Singapore has enhanced security measures, including:

  • strong border controls
  • security and police surveillance
  • restrictions on access to some public venues

Ministers have issued public warnings about the seriousness of the terrorist threat.

The Singapore government has developed the  SG Secure app to help prevent terrorist incidents and alert people to security or other threats. 

Possible terrorist targets include businesses and public areas popular with travellers. 

These include:

  • hotels, clubs, restaurants and bars
  • places of worship
  • outdoor events and markets
  • tourist areas
  • transport hubs, such as train stations
  • places associated with the Singapore Government

To stay safe:

  • be alert to possible threats, especially in public places
  • report any suspicious activity or items to police
  • monitor the media for new threats
  • follow the advice of local authorities

If there's an attack, leave the area as soon as it's safe. Avoid the affected area in case of secondary attacks.

Terrorism is a threat worldwide.

  • Terrorist threats

Climate and natural disasters

Singapore experiences  natural disasters  and  severe weather , including:

Singapore is a major flight hub. Natural disasters in other parts of the world may affect flights. These include volcanic ash plumes.

Contact your airline or travel agent for flight updates.

Travel insurance

Get comprehensive  travel insurance  before you leave. 

Your policy needs to cover all overseas medical costs, including medical evacuation. The Australian Government won't pay for these costs.

If you can't afford travel insurance, you can't afford to travel. This applies to everyone, no matter how healthy and fit you are. 

Medical care is expensive. If you're not insured, you may find yourself paying thousands of dollars for medical treatment. 

  • what activities and care your policy covers
  • that your insurance covers you for the whole time you'll be away.

Physical and mental health

Consider your physical and mental health before you travel, especially if you have an existing medical condition. 

See your doctor or travel clinic to:

  • have a basic health check-up
  • ask if your travel plans may affect your health
  • plan any vaccinations you need.

Do this at least 8 weeks before you leave. 

If you have immediate concerns for your welfare or the welfare of someone you know, call the 24-hour Consular Emergency Centre on +61 2 6261 3305 or contact your  nearest Australian Embassy, High Commission or Consulate  to discuss counselling hotlines and services available in your location.

Medications

Not all medication available over the counter or by prescription in Australia is available in other countries. Some may even be considered illegal or a controlled substance, even if prescribed by an Australian doctor.

If you plan to bring medication, check if it's legal in Singapore. Take enough legal medicine for your trip.

Strict rules control substances in personal medication. Check the  Singapore Health Sciences Authority  for a list of controlled substances. It also explains how to apply for approval at least 10 working days before you arrive.

You don't need pre-approval if you don't leave the airport transit zone. Be aware that prohibited substances, such as chewing gum, cannabis and products containing cannabis extracts, are not allowed to be brought with you, even if you are staying in the airport transit zone.

Carry a copy of your prescription or a letter from your doctor stating:

  • what the medication is
  • your required dosage
  • that it's for personal use

Do not bring medicinal cannabis to Singapore, even during transit. If you take prescribed medicinal cannabis, you should contact the Singapore Health Science Authority to review your situation. 

  • Regulations for bringing personal medications into Singapore

Health risks

Insect-borne diseases.

There is some spread of  Zika  virus. There's no vaccination for it.

If you're pregnant:

  • discuss any travel plans with your doctor
  • consider deferring non-essential travel to affected areas

Outbreaks of other insect-borne illnesses can happen. These include:

  • chikungunya
  • Japanese encephalitis

Risk of insect-borne illnesses increases during the wetter months. This is from December to March and from June to September. Follow the  National Environment Agency's  advice for preventing and identifying dengue infection. Dengue fever is endemic in Singapore. The number of reported cases remains high.

To protect yourself against illness:

  • make sure your accommodation is insect-proof
  • use insect repellent
  • wear long, loose, light-coloured clothing
  • get vaccinated against Japanese encephalitis before you travel
  • Infectious diseases

The cost of medical services is much higher.

Many places will want up-front payment or confirmed payment from your insurer before they provide treatment.

You're subject to all local laws and penalties, including those that may appear harsh by Australian standards. Research local laws before travelling.

If you're arrested or jailed, the Australian Government will do what it can to help you under our  Consular Services Charter . But we can't get you out of trouble or out of jail.

Do you need a visa for Singapore? 

The short answer is yes and no. Passport holders from the below countries (among others) are required to obtain an entry visa before their arrival in Singapore : 

  • People's Republic of Korea 
  • People's Republic of China

For the full list of countries, visit the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority website.  

Please note that obtaining an entry visa does not automatically mean you'll be granted entry into Singapore. Upon your arrival, you'll still have to clear immigration with ICA officers the only ones able to grant immigration passes for entry into Singapore. This also applies to passport holders who don't require entry visas. 

If you're not travelling from one of the aforementioned countries then you don't need to apply for a Singapore visa, however, all travellers (including ones who need to apply for a visa) need to apply for a Singapore Arrival Card which can be obtained online. Click here for more information regarding Singapore Arrival Card requirements and how to apply. 

How to apply for a Singapore visa

There are a couple of ways to apply for a Singapore visa; online and by visiting an embassy or consulate. Applying for a visa online is by far the easiest option and doesn't require a whole heap of time to complete. 

Applying for a Singapore visa online 

1. Fill out the online visa application form found on the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority website. Make sure you proofread and double-check that all your information is correct (especially your email address and passport details) before proceeding to the next stage in your application process. Please note that supporting documentation may be needed in which case an Immigration official will contact you about further requirements. 

2. After submitting your eVisa application, you'll need to pay for the visa by filling out your preferred method of payment. The cost of a Singapore visa can depend on the type of visa, pass, or permit you're submitting for but short-term visitors can expect to pay SGD$30. All Singapore visa payments are non-refundable. 

3. Once your visa's been paid for you'll receive a confirmation email stating your application has been submitted. It's common for visa applications to take up to 4 days to be approved. If your application is approved your visa will be emailed in PDF format and will contain a unique identification number needed to gain entry into Singapore. There's no need to print out this document to take with you to the airport as it's already uploaded to Singapore Immigration's system and will automatically appear when you visit a passport control officer as part of the immigration process once you've landed. 

Exemptions to requiring a visa in Singapore

If you're a passport holder from a country that doesn't require a visa then you can stay in Singapore for a maximum of 30 days (without requiring a visa). If you're a passport holder from Australia, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea, Switzerland, the United States, or if you're a European Union citizen, you can stay in Singapore for a maximum of 90 days before having to acquire a visa.

Australia to create $1.74b fund to invest in South-east Asian projects

australia travel visa singapore

MELBOURNE – Australia said on March 5 it would set up a A$2 billion (S$1.74 billion) finance facility to boost trade and investment in South-east Asia as it looks to deepen ties in a region where many are also searching for ways to live with a more assertive China.

The fund will focus on clean energy and infrastructure and provide loans, guarantees, equity and insurance.

Australia will also tip in an extra A$140 million to extend an existing programme that advises the region on infrastructure projects.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced the fund, which was recommended in 2023 by Australia’s envoy to the region, in a speech on March 5 to business leaders at the Asean summit in Melbourne.

“Australia and South-east Asia must together face this moment with a sense of optimism and urgency,” he said. “Because while there is so much untapped potential, there is no unlimited time. We must act together, and we must act now.”

Two-way trade between Australia and Asean states passed US$178 billion (S$240 billion) in 2022, greater than Japan or the United States, Mr Albanese said.

Australia is hosting the Asean summit, which marks the 50th anniversary of its ties to the bloc, amid growing recognition in Canberra that the region needs to be cultivated at a time when China’s increasing assertiveness is reshaping the Indo-Pacific.

Stances on China across the 10-member bloc range from wary to warm.

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr told an audience in Melbourne on March 4 that his country would grow its security ties with the US and resist when China ignores its maritime rights in the South China Sea.

However, at a joint press conference with Mr Albanese hours earlier, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim criticised growing “China-phobia” in the West.

Asked by reporters about China’s push to join regional trade group Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), Mr Albanese and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said any decision would be by consensus.

Beijing has long sought to join the 12-member CPTPP, which includes Singapore, Britain and Japan, but faces opposition from some members, including Australia, over its coercive trade policies. REUTERS
