Hi All. I'm going to Singapore to get a new tourist visa soon. I understand that they require proof of onward travel in addition to showing SGD1,000. My question is: does my air ticket out of Thailand have to be within 60 days of entry? Or can I assume that I will get the 30-day extension in Thailand and make it within 90 days of entry? Thanks.

Oops! I think I posted this on the wrong forum. Could the powers-that-be move this to the right forum, please? Thanks.

Hi,

I got a 60-day tourist visa in Singapore a couple of weeks ago. I'd been advised by Thaivisa to have onward travel documents within the 60-day period - not within 90. My solution was a one-way ticket to KL on Thai Air Asia for about 1300 baht. I don't think you can find a cheaper air ticket to anywhere outside LOS, but maybe you can do better!

By the way, they accept visa applications in Singapore starting at about 8:45 a.m. (the form says they open at 9:15), but the pick-up time really does start at 2:00 p.m. In addition, they require that you fill out every item on the form, including profession and employer's address. For profession I wrote "Management Consultant" and for the employer address I wrote in "self-employed working from home." That worked for them.

Good luck.

From reports they want within 60 days - better to use other Consulates as Singapore seems to be back on a negative attitude trip.
