Just Ask As a filipino do you need visa to enter singapore ?

Hi Cheng Paguirigan you don't need a visa for short term travel, but you will need to have your passport valid at least 6 months, present your return ticket and hotel voucher, and might be asked to provide that you got the cash to survive in the country during the trip. Visa is not required provided obtaining a Social Visit Pass on arrival for a stay of 14 or 30 days (free of charge). Extension of stay up to 3 months may be possible. Fee for extension of social visit pass is SGD 40.-. (PHP 1,200) Since you love to take a photo it is common courtesy to ask permission to take pictures of people, mosques or temples. When entering a Singaporean's house, temple or mosque, remember to take off your shoes. Failure to flush the toilet after use can result in a $150 fine but then, chances of getting caught are pretty slim. However, urinating in elevators can cause the doors of some to permanently close until the police squad arrives! Smoking in public buses, taxis, lifts, theaters, cinemas, government offices and air-conditioned restaurants and shopping centers is against the law. First offenders may be fined up to a maximum of S$1,000. While it is an offense to smoke in air-conditioned eating places, smoking is not prohibited in air-conditioned pubs, discos, karaoke bars and nightspots.Duty-Free Items: Personal effects and food preparations not exceeding $50 in value. Visitors over 18 and not coming from Malaysia are allowed to bring in duty-free 1 liter of spirits, 1 liter of wine and 1 liter of beer, also 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250 grams of tobacco.

There is no export duty. Export permits are required for firearms, ammunition, explosives, animals, gold in form, platinum, precious stones and jewelery (except reasonable personal effects), poisons and drugs. Any goods in excess of reasonable personal effects should be declared at exit points and an Outward Declaration form prepared, if need be. For inquiries, call the Airport Customs Department.Glad that you going to the Great Singapore Sale and you would love the Food.
