We will share our experience on our travel plans, and also some important things to note on this hassle-full travel.

Requirements for Departure from Singapore for VTL

Here are the things you need:

• COVID-19 vaccination certificate
• Valid passport
• Valid visa / VTP (if required)
• Negative COVID-19 PCR test result (within 48h)
• QR code receipt of Singapore Health Declaration
• S$30,000+ COVID-19 insurance coverage (visitors only)
• Mobile device with the TraceTogether app

Post Arrival Testing in Singapore

Vaccinated Travel Lanes travellers will need to go for a COVID-19 PCR test before 3pm local time on Day 3 and Day 7 after arrival.

Step 1: Payment check is completed by showing the QR code from your pre-booked on arrival test. This is completed via the Changi Airport Safe Travel Concierge website.

Step 2: Registration for your swab test is completed at a number of tall desks. Again, your QR code is scanned plus your passport details, arrival flight details and health status. You’ll then be given a reel of six stickers containing your personal details and instructed to proceed to the swabbing area.

Step 3/4: There was no queue for the swab so I was ushered straight forward. Swabbing is conducted in a series of white booths. Your details will be checked and you’ll be asked to leave your baggage outside.

The tester then told me that it would be both oral and nasal. In practice this means a small swab at the back of your throat, followed by a shallow swab from each nostril.

Step 5: You will be asked to pass your remaining sticker to a final desk for verification before you proceed. The staff here will tell you to proceed back into the terminal building and take private transport straight home to self-isolate until your results are published (within 48 hours, although it’s typical for most passengers will receive them within 12 hours).

How to calculate the post arrival testing day?

Day 1 is your arrival day, so for example if that’s Thursday 16th September.

And then, Day 3 is Saturday 18th September.

Lastly, Day 7 is Wednesday 22nd September.
