One of the visa application requirements for Singapore is that all passports need to have a minimum of six months validity from date of arrival in Singapore.
The Singapore High Commission recommends that you renew or extend the passport if this is not the case. You can transit if you do not need to go through immigration in Singapore, though you will still need permission from your airline to board the plane. However, if you do need to go through immigration, you are strongly advised to renew your passport before travelling. The period of stay permitted is at the discretion of the Immigration Officer upon arrival at the Singapore Changi Airport.
It is normally between 14 to 30 days. Regardless of the length of stay granted, visitors may request for an extension of stay by applying in person at the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority before the expiry of the visa granted.

In all cases transit passengers with travel history to Category 3 and 4 countries, including anyone arriving on flights operating directly from those countries e.
Emirates from Dubai , will be issued with a wristband and escorted to the Transit Holding Area. If their connection is less than 75 minutes, they will be escorted directly to the next departure gate.
Transit passengers with Category 1 and 2 travel history and those who arrived on VTL flights in transit, can simply proceed to the next departure gate from 60 minutes prior to departure time, having enjoyed freedom in the transit shopping zone. Those who have been confined to the Transit Holding Area will be escorted in groups to the departure gate for security screening and boarding, around 75 minutes prior to departure time.
Eligible passengers transiting at Changi with Category 1 and 2 travel history can access one of the following lounges during their layover:. When we travelled to Germany in early September, the temporary SilverKris lounge remained relatively quiet even as passengers began to arrive for the flurry of midnight departures. Recently though, readers have been sharing photos of much more crowded scenes at these hours, no doubt fuelled by the recent travel relaxations for quarantine-free trips, mostly to and from Europe.
SIA is currently operating around 50 inbound passenger flights to Changi each day. Only three or four are from Category 1 countries, but over 30 are from Category 2 countries. It stands to reason that a large proportion of transit passengers on these flights will be eligible to access the main transit concourse and that a certain proportion of those will be eligible to head to the SilverKris lounge prior to their onward flight.
With Australia removing arrival caps for returning citizens and permanent residents from 1st November , in addition to allowing unrestricted outbound travel, the crowding could become even more exacerbated.
The new SilverKris lounges at Changi will help relieve the burden on the temporary facility, but these still seem someway off opening. This had already been doubling as the temporary KrisFlyer Gold lounge prior to the pandemic, a function it was originally set to serve until the SIA lounge renovation project was completed.
Relocating these passengers back to Marhaba would ease some strain on the temporary lounge, if it comes to that. At the time of writing, 14 airlines operating at Changi have approval to carry transit passengers to and from the networks of partner carriers, as shown in the following table.
