After closing its borders to leisure travel for most tourists since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Singapore is set to welcome more travelers, including Filipinos, through its “Vaccinated Travel Lane” (VTL) program, starting March 4.
The VTL program allows visitors to enter the country through designated VTL flights without the need to quarantine upon arrival. Included in the program are short-term visitors or tourists.
Under the program, visitors must be fully vaccinated with World Health Organization emergency use vaccines. According to Singapore Immigration and Checkpoints Authority, one is considered fully vaccinated if he or she has received the full regimen of WHO EUL vaccines at least two weeks before arrival in Singapore.
Unvaccinated travelers who are 12 years old and below can travel to Singapore via the VTL if they are accompanied by a fully vaccinated traveler. PINKY S. ICAMEN
