Faster immigration clearance extended to Japanese and South Korean travellers

Those who have visited Singapore twice or more in the last two years can apply.

Holders of Japan and South Korea passports can now enjoy faster immigration clearance in Singapore as the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) extended the Frequent Traveller Programme (FTP).

Eligible to apply starting 28 August are Japan and South Korea nationals aged six and above holding a passport with a validity of over six months and have visited Singapore at least twice in the past two years.

The programme will allow the use of automated immigration clearance facilities, also called enhanced-Immigration Automated Clearance System, at Singapore's checkpoints.

Enrollment for FTP is voluntary and free, at enrollment centres in Terminal 3 Changi Airport, the Visitors Service Centre at the ICA Building, and Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
