What many would ask is this:
The visa fee for a Singapore short-term/tourist visa is generally a non-refundable S$30 (Singapore Dollars) processing fee, paid to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
However, the total cost can vary depending on several factors:
Your Nationality: While the ICA processing fee is S$30 for many nationalities, you may not require a visa at all, or the official fee might be different based on your passport.
Where You Apply: If you apply through a Singapore Overseas Mission or an Authorized Visa Agent (like VFS Global), they will charge an additional service fee on top of the S$30 processing fee. This service fee can vary by country and agent. For example:
One source mentions the total cost for Nigerians being between ₦20,000 – ₦35,000 (SGD 30 – SGD 60) depending on processing speed and additional fees.
Another source mentions an INR 1,900 processing fee for Indian nationals, plus an optional Rs. 1,000 service fee from the Authorized Visa Agent.
Type of Visa: Other types of passes (like Long-Term Visit Pass, Student Pass, or various Work Passes) have different application and issuance fees. For a standard tourist visa, S$30 is the official processing fee.
To get the most accurate cost, you should check the official website of the Singapore Overseas Mission or the Authorized Visa Agent in your specific country
