Singapore Visa for Yemeni Citizens

Yes. If you hold a Yemeni passport, you need a Singapore visa before you board your flight to Changi. This applies to tourism, family visits, business meetings, medical care, and even short airport stops where you plan to leave the transit area. Singapore does not have an embassy or consulate in Aden, so you cannot apply face-to-face inside Yemen. The simplest and only practical path is the online Singapore eVisa, filed on your behalf by a Singapore-based sponsor like us and delivered to your email.

Singapore ICA rules ask for an authorized local sponsor or visa agent inside Singapore to file visa applications for Yemeni nationals. You cannot submit a file to ICA by yourself from Aden, Sana'a, or any other Yemeni city. Our Singapore office at 68 Circular Road acts as your sponsor. We prepare the Letter of Introduction (LOI), upload your papers, and follow your case until it is approved. You do not need a friend, employer, or family inside Singapore to invite you.

Yes. The Yemeni passport is fully accepted by Singapore ICA for visa applications. Our Singapore office files your case with full LOI sponsorship, and we have approved thousands of Yemeni applicants over the years. Yemen and Singapore have long-standing diplomatic relations, and there are no special restrictions on Yemeni nationals applying through the online eVisa route.

If you also hold a US, UK, Canadian, Australian, German, French, or any other EU passport, use that one. Most of those nationalities enter Singapore visa-free for 30 to 90 days with no paperwork needed. Use your Yemeni passport only if that is the one you will actually travel on. We will confirm the best choice during our free WhatsApp pre-check.

Yes. A residence permit (UAE Emirates ID, Saudi Iqama, US Green Card, UK ILR, Canadian PR, German Aufenthaltstitel) does not change your nationality. If you travel on a Yemeni passport you still need the Singapore eVisa, even if you have lived abroad for many years. The good news is that a stable overseas residence history often speeds up our pre-check because ICA sees a clear address and work record.

All prices are in US dollars and all-inclusive (Singapore government fee + LOI sponsor fee + our service fee). Standard (8 working days): USD 135 single, USD 169 double. Priority (5 working days): USD 179 single, USD 199 double. Express (3 working days): USD 209 single, USD 229 double. No hidden charges. You see the final amount before you pay.

Under current ICA rules, the Singapore visa for Yemeni nationals is issued only as Single Entry or Double Entry. Multiple Entry is not offered on this passport. If your plan is to enter Singapore twice inside the 63-day validity window, for example Singapore on the way out to Bali and then again on the way home, choose Double Entry when you apply. For three or more entries you must submit a fresh application after each visit.

We offer three speeds. Standard takes 8 working days. Priority takes 5 working days. Express takes 3s working days. Counting starts the day after we file your papers, not on Saturday, Sunday, or Singapore public holidays. Please apply a few days early and avoid booking a non-refundable flight until your eVisa is in your email.

Most cards issued inside Yemen do not currently work on international USD gateways because of the long-running sanctions environment that limits Yemeni banks' access to global payment networks (Visa, Mastercard). The simplest workarounds our Yemeni customers use are: (1) a friend or family member's card from outside Yemen (Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, UAE, Germany, Sweden, USA), (2) a relative's card from Lebanon, the UAE or Turkey via WhatsApp, or (3) an international virtual card service. We can hold your application while you sort out payment so you do not lose your slot in under a minute, or you can request activation at any branch. Fresh USD accounts are accepted without issues.

Since the ongoing conflict since 2015 and the deep currency collapse that followed, the US dollar has become widely used in Yemen alongside the Yemeni Rial (YER) for everyday purchases. On our site you pay in USD directly. Because Yemeni-issued cards usually cannot pay international USD gateways, most of our Yemeni customers settle the fee using a friend's or relative's international card. Wer bank converts at its own daily rate. We never add a currency-conversion fee from our side.

ICA needs at least 6 months of passport validity from the day you arrive in Singapore. If your passport expires in 7 months and you plan to travel in the next few weeks, you are fine. If your trip is later, renew first. Passport renewal in Yemen through the Immigration, Passports and Naturalization Authority (under the Ministry of Internal Affairs or at a Yemen diplomatic mission abroad usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. Our pre-check will flag any file close to the 6-month threshold before you pay.

Up to 29 days per entry. The officer at Changi Airport decides the exact number of days when you arrive. The visa itself is valid for 63 days from the day ICA issues it, so you must enter Singapore at least once inside that window. To stay longer than 29 days, you must file an extension on the ICA e-Service, and extensions are not always granted.

Yes. Every person needs their own Singapore eVisa linked to their own Yemeni passport, including babies. We bundle the whole family into one payment and one delivery email. Children need their own photo and their own passport bio scan. We recommend the same speed tier for everyone so your visas all land on the same day. If your spouse has a different family name, carry the children's birth certificates (and a marriage certificate if only one parent travels) for Changi arrival.

Yes. Many Yemeni travelers build a Southeast Asia loop: Singapore plus Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, or Bali. Your Singapore eVisa covers Singapore only, but Yemeni citizens can enter Malaysia for up to 30 days visa-free, Thailand for up to 30 days visa-free, and Indonesia with a visa on arrival in Bali. If you plan to come back into Singapore after a side trip, choose Double Entry at the start of your application, not Single Entry.

ICA does not demand travel insurance for Yemeni tourists, but we strongly recommend it. Healthcare in Singapore is excellent but expensive for foreigners, and a single emergency room visit can run into the hundreds of dollars. A basic travel insurance policy from a Yemeni or European insurer usually costs under USD 20 for a two-week trip and covers hospital bills, flight delays, and lost luggage. Carry your policy number on your phone when you land at Changi.

Size 35mm x 45mm. Taken within the last 3 months. Plain white background. Face must be fully visible, neutral expression, no big smile. No sunglasses, no glare on glasses, no jewelry on the face. Religious head coverings are allowed as long as the full face oval stays visible from forehead to chin. We review every photo before we file. If the photo is off, we ask you for a free retake and help you from your phone.

Yes. Singapore is one of the top 5 safest cities in the world for solo women travelers. The MRT runs until around midnight, Grab and normal taxis are reliable and metered, and police response is very fast. Hotels and hostels are used to solo female guests from across the world, and staff speak English. Many Yemeni women make this trip alone for work or a short break with no issues at all. You can dress however you feel comfortable, Singapore is open and multicultural.

There is no direct flight from Yemen to Singapore. Yemeni travelers typically fly one-stop from Rafic Hariri International (ADE) via Dubai (Emirates or flydubai), Doha (Qatar Airways), Abu Dhabi (Etihad), or Istanbul (Turkish Airlines). flydubai or Air Arabia via Sharjah and Salalah, Royal Jordanian via Amman, or Egyptair via Cairo, then onwards to Singapore also operates between Aden and major Gulf hubs with onward connections to Singapore on partner carriers. Total travel time is usually 12 to 16 hours door to door. Your Singapore eVisa is valid no matter how many stops you take.

We reply in Arabic and English on WhatsApp, email, and phone. Most first answers come back in under 15 business minutes during Aden working hours. If your English is limited, write to us in Arabic and we will answer in the same language. Our agents are used to Arabic names written in Roman letters, so you do not need to worry about transliteration differences between your passport and your booking.
