The new initiative aims to enhance the efficiency and convenience of the customs clearance process
SINGAPORE: Starting next Tuesday , travellers entering and exiting Singapore via Woodlands and Tuas Checkpoints by car can utilize QR codes for seamless customs clearance.
Under the new system, Singaporean citizens, permanent residents, and long-term pass holders simply need to download the myICA mobile application, accessible via SingPass, to their smartphones. By logging in, users can effortlessly input their information, which will then generate a QR code. Physical passport clearance at the counter will still be required for first-time entrants or individuals utilising different passports. However, subsequent entries can utilize the QR code clearance system.Authorities provided an example that highlights the system’s convenience for families. A single member can input passport information into the MyICA app, generating a QR code for the entire family, thus expediting the process.
