All international students are eligible to request for an airport pick up service. Each student is granted access to our Online Pre-arrival System found on this page:

You are required to accomplish the details on required fields such as your flight details and accommodation preferences. If you are accompanied by a guest (either family or friends), his or her particulars are required to be completed as well. These should be done 2 weeks prior to your arrival to Singapore. You will then receive an arrival acknowledgement email within 2 working days upon receipt of your application. The acknowledgement indicates the contact person of the meet and greets staff who will pick you up from the airport and other first points of contact in case of emergency.

On the day of your arrival, you will be met by the Meet and Greet Staff member. From there, you will be assisted and be provided with advice on how to change currencies and purchase prepaid mobile sim cards to call your family back home. After which you will be sent to your pre-arranged accommodation.

Before you leave your designated arrival belt, you will come across 2 Singapore Customs Counters:

These counters are manned by ICA officers who grant clearance to all travellers bringing items / goods to Singapore. Before bringing any item to the country, refer to this vital information and check to which category the goods belong to.

Under Singapore laws, certain types of items are subject to the payment of duty before you can bring them into the country, some require permits with relevant government authorities prior to customs clearance. On the other hand, there is a category of goods which are absolutely prohibited from being brought into the country and which could subject you to composition amounts and customs offences once caught in your possession.
