Immigration at SIN
Got a question:
I will be on a MR into SIN. Arriving late sunday night from BKK and departing again Tuesday night back to BKK and then continuing onwards.
Will that be a problem at immigration? Arriving from BKK and departing back to BKK, staying in Singapore for less than 48H?
Thanks

As other posters have noted, as long as you have a valid passport you're good to go in SIN. The airport is a significant international transit point, so the immigration folks are well used to people in-transit or on short stays.

I think if you wrote on your landing card that you would be staying the maximum amount allowed per entry (60 days, or is it 90?) that someone might inquire as to the nature of your visit.

I remember a late night return to SIN before I activated my working holiday visa, I put that I'll be staying for five or six months... and the person asked me where do I live? I replied Singapore of course without hesitation, only realizing moments later how weird that sounded. By that trip I had been in and out of Singapore almost half a dozen times, most trips for no more than a few days, many actually on day trips.
