Singapore's new visa rules: mandatory calls and travel companion data

Singapore has announced the introduction of strict new visa rules aimed at improving transparency in the application process and protecting against fraud. These changes include mandatory verification calls for all applicants, as well as a requirement to provide data on traveling companions.

Under the new rules, all visa applicants are now required to undergo a verification call, which can be done via video call or regular phone call. A current phone number and email address must be provided. It is important to note that if the applicant fails the verification call, their visa application will be automatically rejected.

In addition, the consulate requires the details of accompanying persons. Applicants must provide the full name of the traveling companion, their relationship to the applicant, and their passport number. Incomplete or incorrect data may result in the denial of the visa application, so it is highly recommended that all required information is filled out carefully.

These measures aim to reduce the risk of fraudulent applications and ensure that only genuine travelers are allowed to enter the country. In this way, Singapore continues to improve the security of its visa system, making the process more reliable and secure.
