If you are transiting through Singapore and do not intend to clear immigration (i.e., stay within the transit area of Changi Airport), you are generally not required to complete the SG Arrival Card. However, if you plan to enter Singapore (e.g., for a layover tour or to collect baggage), you must complete it.

Australian citizens do not pay a fee for the Short-Term Visit Pass upon arrival. The SG Arrival Card submission is also free of charge when completed through the official ICA e-Service.

Singapore generally requires your passport to be valid for at least six months from your intended date of entry. You should renew your passport before travelling to avoid potential issues at immigration. Entry may be denied if your passport does not meet this validity requirement.

While there isn't a fixed amount, you must be able to demonstrate sufficient funds to cover your expenses during your stay in Singapore. Immigration officers may ask for proof such as credit cards, bank statements, or cash. Ensure you can show you can support yourself financially for your planned trip.

As a self-employed Australian tourist, you should be prepared to explain the purpose of your visit and your ties to Australia.

No. Australian citizens do not need a visa for a short tourist stay in Singapore, so there is no visa fee to pay. You may still be asked at the border for a return ticket, accommodation details and proof of funds, and any airport or tourist taxes are charged separately.

You do not need a separate visa for any individual city. Entry rules are set nationally, not city by city, so visa-free entry applies to the whole of Singapore — including Gardens by the Bay, Marina Bay Sands Skypark, Sentosa Island and Singapore Zoo & Night Safari. Once admitted you can travel anywhere inside Singapore, up to the permitted length of stay.
