What are the Singapore visa requirements for Egyptian citizens?

VisatoSingapore Editorial TeamReviewed Oct 24, 2026

Short answer

An Egyptian ordinary-passport holder needs a Singapore entry visa before travel; there is no visa on arrival. ICA exempts Egyptian diplomatic passports. Check the travel document you actually hold before following an ordinary-passport checklist.

English is the reference version. Translations are provided for convenience. Before making an important decision, check the linked official page; if anything differs, contact support.

For a social or business visit, ICA lists a signed Form 14A, a colour passport photo taken within the last three months, and a copy of the passport biodata page. The passport must be valid for at least six months from entry. A Form V39A letter of introduction may be issued by an eligible Singapore local contact; ICA can ask for more documents. Non-English documents need an official English translation under ICA's rules.

A Singapore citizen or permanent resident aged at least 21 with Singpass can submit through ICA's online route; a strategic partner can also submit. If you apply through a Singapore Overseas Mission or its authorised agent, follow the procedure of the Mission where you will apply, including any local document rules. ICA advises applying within 30 days before arrival. A visa lets you travel to seek entry; ICA decides admission at the checkpoint.

Frequently asked

Do Egyptian citizens need a visa for a Singapore tourist visit?
Yes. An Egyptian ordinary passport holder should obtain the required Singapore entry visa before an ordinary tourist visit. Verify the live ICA country requirement and the permitted filing route before booking a tight itinerary.
Can an Egyptian passport holder get a Singapore visa on arrival?
No. Do not plan an ordinary Singapore tourist trip around visa on arrival. Prepare Form 14A and the supporting file, then use a currently permitted pre-travel filing route; ICA makes the approval decision.
What should an Egyptian applicant verify before paying for visa support?
Verify the passport's current ICA visa requirement, the accepted filing route, who will submit Form 14A, and which supporting documents that route requires. Pay only after the route and service scope are clear; ICA retains the final approval decision.
