We have been closely monitoring the progress of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic through government advisories and our extensive network of industry partners to provide first-hand information from various destinations.
As travel restrictions begin to ease gradually, you are probably anticipating the prospects of travelling again and have some questions on what to expect. We have put together the Frequently Asked Questions to help you realise your travel plans for 2021 and beyond with peace of mind.
In October 2021, the Singapore government introduced Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) scheme to allow quarantine-free travel between Singapore and a list of VTL countries for fully vaccinated travelers.
Fully vaccinated Singapore travelers (including citizens and residents) are eligible to travel via the VTL scheme with a Vaccinated Travel Pass (VTP). For more details, you may refer to the official VTL website here. Speak to our luxury travel specialist for the most updated information on the VTP.
While each VTL country or region has its own set of testing and quarantine (if any) requirements, many of them only require pre-departure and on-arrival ART or PCR testing. Our travel specialists are constantly monitoring entry requirements for these destinations. Speak to us for the most up-to-date information.
The VTL scheme first started with Germany and Brunei in October 2021. As of the time of writing, it has been extended to over 20 countries including popular travel destinations across Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania and Middle East. For the most updated list of the VTL countries, check out the VTL page on the Singapore government.
