Singapore VTL discontinued, announced new drastic border measures. A good news for Singapore travels as they only streamline to General and Restricted Travel starting from 1 April 2022.
Singapore VTL is known to be a complex and obnoxious process. It was a grey area of no-quarantine with multiple tests.
An important signal to the world, that Singapore is reconnecting to the world again. Reinstate Changi Airport to international hub again. Singapore is definitely ready to welcome the world again.
Therefore, Singapore introduce Vaccinated Travel Framework (VTF).
“We will shift from Vaccinated Travel Lanes to the Vaccinated Travel Framework.”
S. Iswaran, Singapore Minister for Transport
Singapore VTF Details
- From 1st April 2022, fully-vaccinated travellers can travel to Singapore from any country, except those on the ‘Restricted’ list (as of now, there is no Restricted country)
- A booster dose is not required
