Travellers with a 14-day travel history to these countries will be allowed to enter and transit through Singapore from 11.59pm on Tuesday (26 October).

In a press release on Saturday, the Ministry of Health said that these travellers will be subject to Category IV border measures.

In addition, the MOH said, based on the COVID-19 situation in Cambodia, Egypt, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Malaysia, Mongolia, Qatar, Rwanda, Samoa, Seychelles, South Africa, Tonga, United Arab Emirates and Vietnam, they will be placed in Category III from 11.59pm on 26 October. Testing protocols and procedures have also been streamlined for travellers arriving or transiting through Singapore.

All travellers from Category III countries or regions will serve their 10-day SHN at their declared place of residence or accommodation regardless of the travellers’ and their household members’ vaccination status and travel history. By default, they will not be allocated accommodation in any dedicated SHN facilities. Returning residents should ensure that alternative accommodation is secured prior to their return if their homes are unsuitable for their SHN.

Travellers from Category IV countries or regions will still be required to serve their 10-day SHN at dedicated SHN facilities.
