Course Description

Singapore is Southeast Asia's leading business hub and handles business visitor clearance efficiently through its well organised Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). Most business visitors enter Singapore on a Short Term Visit Pass (STVP) granted at the border. However, some nationalities require a prior visa, and certain business activities have specific rules. This course gives you a clear, practical understanding of how the Singapore business visit process works from application to entry.
