Travellers from Taiwan to Singapore who test negative for COVID19 on arrival to be able to go about their activities; will not need to serve stay-home notice

SINGAPORE: Singapore will soon allow travellers from Taiwan to take a COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction test upon arrival and to go about their activities in Singapore if the PCR test result is negative.

Currently, travellers from Taiwan are subjected to an on-arrival COVID-19 PCR test, a 14-day stay-home notice at a dedicated facility or place of residence, and a PCR test before the end of the stay-home notice. Short-term visitors with travel history to Taiwan in the 21 days before their departure for Singapore can apply for an Air Travel Pass with immediate effect, for entry into Singapore on or after Aug 12, MOH added.
