Here is a sample of the Singapore e-visa:
How can I verify my Singapore e-visa?
Since a Singapore visa can generally only be applied through a local sponsor or an agent, it’s natural to have second thoughts about its authenticity. But worry not- you can easily verify your Singapore e-visa, and here's how:
Visit the ICA (Immigration & Checkpoints Authority) website's e-services section.
Click on the "Enquire Application Status" icon.
Enter the visa reference number and travel document number.
Clear the Captcha and click 'Next.'
Your visa information will be displayed on the screen, which you can match with your issued e-visa to verify the authenticity of your received visa.
My Singapore visa application shows “rejected.” Can I reapply?
Yes, you can reapply for a new visa if your Singapore visa application is rejected. Moreover, there is no waiting period for reapplying for a Singapore visa after rejection. However, before you reapply, you must address the reasons for your previous rejection.
Some common Singapore visa rejection reasons include:
Error-free application: Submitting a visa application with errors, omissions, or false information can lead to rejection.
Invalid passport: If your passport or travel document has a validity of less than six months from your intended date of entry into Singapore, that can also lead to rejection.
Outdated photographs: When applying for a Singapore visa, it is important to submit recent passport-sized photographs. If your photo is old and unclear, it might also delay the visa processing.
Travel history: Consular officers often use travel history to assess the consistency and credibility of your application. Failure to mention details of your previous visits to Singapore can significantly impact your visa application.
Financial proof: The government needs proof that you can sustain your planned stay in Singapore and not become a liability to the visiting country. Providing insufficient funds is a common reason why applications get rejected.
Note: The Singapore government does not disclose the reasons for visa refusal due to the confidentiality of information.

What information do I need to check the Singapore visa status?

Where can I find my Singapore visa reference number?

Can I check my Singapore visa status using my passport number alone?
No, you cannot do the Singapore visa status check by passport number alone. You will also need the visa reference number.
My Singapore visa status is still showing "in process." What can I do?
If your Singapore e-visa status is still showing "in process," there might be two possible scenarios:
Still within the processing window: The Singapore visa processing generally takes 3 working days. So, it's normal for the status to remain "in process" during this period.
Processing delays: If the status remains unchanged even after the processing time is over, check your email's spam or junk folder to see if you have missed any updates. If there are no updates, contact the e-visa support team of the application platform through which you applied.
