Singapore is generally considered safe for travelers, and the crime rate is low. Travelers should keep track of their personal belongings, especially while traveling in crowded places or by public transportation.

Be aware of the presence of extremist groups in Southeast Asia that have attacked neighboring countries. In general, areas frequented by Westerners and U.S. citizens may be at a higher risk for terrorist attacks.

Singapore has some harsh penalties for items that many may view as fairly mundane. This includes:

  • Arrests for jaywalking, littering or spitting
  • Caning for graffiti or other kinds of vandalism
  • Imprisonment, caning or fine for immigration violations

Sexually inappropriate behavior, lewd remarks and violations of modesty can also be harshly punished.

Drunk and disorderly conduct is punishable by fine or prison time. In many areas it is illegal to consume alcohol between 10:30 pm and 7:00 am in public places.

Singapore does not recognize same-sex unions, and LGBT travelers may face challenges or discrimination. The Penal Code criminalizes “acts of gross indecency” between two men, though the government has said it will not enforce this statute.

Travelers without their passports may be taken in for questioning.

Here are some essential items to consider for your trip to Singapore:

  • Insect repellent and sunscreen
  • An umbrella and rain jacket, waterproof clothing and shoes
  • Light, breathable clothing
  • Travel documents like passport and visa
