The rest of the trip for a Taiwanese passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Singapore entry requirements.
The details for a Taiwanese passport.
Not on ICA's visa-required list (checked; page updated 25 Jun 2026), so no visa is needed. ICA does not publish stay length by nationality: the officer sets it on the e-Pass emailed at entry. Submit the free SG Arrival Card within 3 days before arrival. Extensions via ICA's online STVP e-Service. Taiwan BOCA list (updated 7 Oct 2026): Singapore visa-free 30 days, extension to be applied for after entry.
How long it must be valid.
Passport must be valid at least 6 months from the date of entry (ICA; also Japan MOFA and Germany's Foreign Office; Ireland's DFA words it as 6 months beyond intended departure). Also required for transit per Canada. German ID cards are not accepted. Residents have no minimum.
