ICA to roll out passport-less clearance at Tuas and Woodlands checkpoints, Marina Bay Cruise Centre

The initiative will commence on 16 December.

The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority will roll out QR code clearance progressively at all automated lanes and Special Assistance Lanes SALs at the bus halls of Tuas and Woodlands checkpoints, commencing with Tuas Checkpoint, from 16 December.

The ICA will also implement token-less clearance at Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore (MBCCS), allowing travelers to clear immigration using facial and iris biometrics.

This initiative will enable passport-less clearance at land checkpoints and token-less clearance at air and sea checkpoints. With this, travellers can expect shorter queues and waiting times when clearing immigration.

“With the full implementation of QR code clearance at the bus halls, ICA would have completed the roll-out of the passport-less clearance initiative for all modes of transport at the land checkpoints. As of 1 December 2024, close to 28 million travellers had used the QR code for immigration clearance at the land checkpoints,” ICA said.
