Seeking Extension of Visit Pass

A short-term visit pass (STVP), generally in the form of an electronic visit pass or e-Pass, is issued at the point of entry to visitors who are eligible for entry and short-term stay in Singapore as a tourist; for social visit, or medical treatment. To check the validity of your STVP, you may use the  visit pass validity tool  or the e-Pass enquiry portal .

Visitors issued with a STVP shall not engage in any form of employment (paid or unpaid), business, profession, or occupation in Singapore during the validity of the STVP, unless they hold a valid work pass issued under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act 1990 or are engaging in Work Pass Exempt Activities .

Extension of Stay

All STVP extension applications must be submitted online. Walk-in applications will not be accepted.

Visitors who need to extend their STVP may submit an application for extension of stay by using the e-Service , up to 14 days before the STVP expires. This facility is only applicable to STVPs issued by ICA and can be used to apply for an extension of stay for either up to 30 days or up to 89 days (only for applicants with immediate family members who are SC/PR). The period of extension granted is subject to ICA’s assessment. An e-notification on the application outcome will be sent to the email provided in the application. A physical endorsement is not required for approved applications for extension of stay submitted using the e-Service.

For STVPs issued by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) to foreigners (e.g., upon cancellation of MOM-issued passes such as Work Pass/Dependant’s Pass, or extended stay for confinement nannies), please visit MOM’s website or email them for assistance at [email protected] .

Local Sponsor Requirement

You will require a local sponsor to support your application for extension of stay if you are:

• Seeking an extension of up to 89 days from your date of entry; or
• A national of the countries or holder of the passports listed below.

The local sponsor must be either a Singapore citizen or a Singapore permanent resident (PR) who is at least 21 years old with a Singpass account. If he/she does not have a Singpass account, please apply for one using  www.singpass.gov.sg .

You will need the following documents to apply for an extension of stay using the  e-Service :

• Valid travel document (e.g. passport). You must submit a scan of the page in your travel document that shows your personal particulars.
• Disembarkation/Embarkation (D/E) number that can be found in your SG Arrival Card

Additional documents or clarifications may be required on a case-by-case basis, and you and your local sponsor (if applicable) may be requested to upload the scanned copies of the original documents during the online submission, or to bring the original documents for an interview at the Visitor Services Centre, which is located on Level 4 of the ICA Building. Some examples are below-

• For visitors with immediate family members who are Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents:  original supporting documents may be required to establish the relationship.
• For visitors seeking extension of stay for medical treatment : a completed FormV75 duly endorsed by a registered doctor in Singapore with details of the illness and the period of stay required.
• All STVP extension applications must be submitted online using the e-Service . Walk-in applications will not be accepted.

Upon approval, you may need to pay the following non-refundable fees:

• Extension Fee: An extension fee of S$40 is applicable if the extension granted leads to the applicant staying in Singapore for a period of 90 days or more from the date of entry/issuance of pass. This fee is also applicable for every subsequent block of 90 days from the date of entry/issuance of pass (e.g., fee of $40 would be applicable again if the extension granted leads to the applicant staying in Singapore for a period of 180 days or more from the date of entry/issuance of pass.).
• Visa Fee (where applicable): For visa-required visitors, a fee of S$30 is applicable if you have stayed in Singapore beyond the relevant visa-free period.
