Singapore: Normal immigration clearance resumes at several border checkpoints nationwide March 31 /update 1

Event

Several air and land checkpoints in Singapore resumed normal immigration clearance March 31 after a technical problem caused an immigration clearance system disruption that began at around 11:28. The disruption affected Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints, as well as Changi Airport (SIN), resulting in long queues and delays for hundreds of travelers.

Lingering disruptions are probable through the evening of March 31 as authorities work to clear passenger backlog.

Advice

Confirm all flight details at SIN and check the status of roads and border crossings before departure. Prepare for delays and allow additional time for travel at SIN and border crossings. Do not check out of accommodation until onward travel is confirmed.
