On August 24, 2022, Singapore's Ministry of Health announced a relaxation of the country's COVID-related entry restrictions for international travelers.

United StatesCoronavirus (COVID-19)

On August 24, 2022, Singapore's Ministry of Health announced a relaxation of the country's COVID-related entry restrictions for international travelers. Specifically, as of August 29, travelers who are not fully vaccinated are no longer required to complete a seven-day home isolation period after arrival or complete post-arrival PCR testing. Singapore's announcement is part of a recent rollback of COVID-19 entry requirements by various countries in East Asia, including Japan and South Korea.

Singapore's "Vaccinated Travel Framework"

In April 2022, Singapore launched a "Vaccinated Travel Framework" (VTF) to facilitate the safe resumption of international travel to and from the country. Under the VTF, fully-vaccinated travelers have been allowed to enter Singapore without having to apply for entry approval, take COVID-19 tests, or undergo a home isolation period after arrival.
