VTL: What Malaysians need to prepare before travelling to Singapore


It's been a long time coming, but the highly anticipated Malaysia-Singapore Vaccinated Travel Lane programme finally kicked off on Nov 29 for both air and land travel.

Although all vaccinated adults are eligible for entry (unvaccinated children are still allowed to travel, provided that they are accompanied by at least one vaccinated adult), you would still need to register for the quarantine-free travel.

Also, each traveller must also comply to all the terms and conditions set by both countries under the VTL agreement.

We've prepared a chart containing some basic information on what you would need to do and prepare before travelling to Singapore under the VTL, but for the complete details, head to the Malaysian Immigration Department website, or to the Singapore Immigration & Checkpoint Authority website (https://eservices.ica.gov.sg/STO1/VTL).
