Singapore’s Health Ministry has announced that pre-departure tests will be required for travellers from India who are not Singapore citizens or permanent residents.

This is as MOH observed “a significant number of imported cases with recent travel history to India”, as well as reports of a resurgence of infections in India.

MOH said travellers who are not Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents, and who have recent travel history to India within the last 14 days prior to entry will be required to take a Covid-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test within 72 hours before departure.
