What happens at the border

1
Apply for eVisa online
Go to the official Singapore eVisa portal or use an authorized agent. Fill in your passport details, travel dates, and upload a digital passport photo. Pay the fee (around SGD 30-40). You'll receive a reference number. Approval comes by email in 3-5 business days.
2
Prepare your documents
Print or save on your phone: eVisa approval email, passport bio page, return ticket, and first night accommodation confirmation. Keep them in a folder or a notes app for quick access.
3
Arrive at Changi Airport
At Changi Airport (SIN), follow signs to 'Arrivals' and join the 'Foreign Passports' queue. Have your passport and eVisa approval ready. The officer will check your documents, take fingerprints, and stamp your passport. The whole process takes 10-20 minutes if lines are short.
4
Clear immigration and collect luggage
After the officer stamps your passport, proceed to baggage claim. Then head to customs — green channel if you have nothing to declare, red channel if you have dutiable goods. Exit into the arrival hall.

Frequently asked questions

Processing usually takes 3-5 business days. Apply at least a week before your flight to be safe. You'll receive the approval by email.
No, the eVisa for Jordanian passport holders is not extendable. You must leave Singapore before your 30-day stay expires. Overstaying can result in fines or a ban.
You must renew your passport before applying for the eVisa. Singapore requires at least 6 months of validity from your date of entry. If your passport expires sooner, your eVisa will be rejected.
No, proof of funds is not required for Jordanian passport holders entering Singapore. Just have your eVisa, passport, return ticket, and accommodation confirmation ready.
If you're transiting through Changi Airport and staying airside (not passing immigration), you don't need a visa. But if you plan to leave the airport or have a layover longer than 24 hours, you need the eVisa.
If your eVisa is denied, you'll receive a rejection notice by email. You can reapply after addressing the reason (e.g., incorrect documents, insufficient passport validity). There's no appeal process, but you can submit a new application. Contact the Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) for guidance.
No, travel insurance is not mandatory for entry. However, it's strongly recommended because medical costs in Singapore are very high. A hospital stay can cost hundreds of dollars per day, and insurance covers emergencies, trip cancellations, and lost luggage.
