FAQs

How much show money do Filipinos need for Singapore? Singapore sets no figure, but Philippine immigration and Singapore ICA both expect funds consistent with your stay — commonly advised is SGD 100+ per day. Check official guidance.

Can I extend beyond 30 days? Yes, extension requests can be filed with ICA before your pass expires; approval is discretionary.

Can Filipinos work in Singapore on visa-free entry? No. Working requires an Employment Pass, S Pass, or Work Permit arranged by an employer.

Do I need the SG Arrival Card for a cruise or land entry too? Yes — all entry points require it.

Why do Filipinos get offloaded going to Singapore? Philippine immigration screens outbound travelers; incomplete documents or unclear purpose are the usual reasons. Carry a complete kit.
