FAQ for Indian applicants
Can Indian citizens apply for a Singapore visa on their own?+
No. The ICA requires Indian passport holders to submit through an authorised visa agent or a Singapore-based sponsor. We file through that authorised channel on your behalf.
How long does a Singapore visa take for Indian applicants?+
Typically 3–7 working days. Files submitted just before Singapore public holidays or Chinese New Year take longer, so build in a week of buffer.
Do I qualify for Singapore's 96-hour visa-free transit?+
If you hold a valid US, UK, Schengen, Australian, Japanese, New Zealand, Canadian or Korean visa or residence permit and are transiting onward, yes. We confirm this at no charge before filing.
How long can I stay once the Singapore visa is approved?+
The visa is often multiple-entry for up to two years, but the officer at Changi decides the stay stamped on arrival — usually 30 days. The stamp, not the visa validity, governs your stay.
Does a Singapore refusal affect future applications?+
It is recorded, so the next application must address the original weakness — usually weak financials or an unclear purpose. We rebuild the file rather than resubmitting the same evidence.
Do Indian citizens need a visa for Singapore?+
Yes. Indian passport holders need a E-Visa to enter Singapore. It can be applied for entirely online through Vizaezy and is typically issued in 3 days.
How long does the Singapore visa take for Indian applicants?+
Median processing time is 3 days from the moment your documents are submitted. Vizaezy tracks your application against the government portal in real time.
How much does a Singapore visa cost from India?+
Total cost is USD 52 — that's USD 22 in government fees plus USD 30 for Vizaezy's service. Government fees are non-refundable, our service fee is refunded if the visa is denied.
How long can Indian citizens stay in Singapore?+
The E-Visa permits a stay of up to 30 days and is valid for 60 days from issue.
What documents do Indian applicants need?+
A passport valid for at least 6 months, a recent passport-style photo, travel dates, accommodation details and proof of funds. Vizaezy auto-extracts your passport fields on-device — no manual data entry required.
Indian nationals cannot file a Singapore visa directly — the ICA only accepts applications submitted through an authorised local agent or a Singapore contact, which is exactly the channel we file through.
