Passport Submission Guide
Your passport is your most precious document. Here is exactly how we handle it out with complete transparency and verified security protocols.
Why is Your Original Passport Required?
Singapore's Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) physically stamps the Short-Term Visit Pass onto a page of your original passport. This is a mandatory, non-negotiable requirement of Singapore's immigration process as it cannot be substituted with digital documents, photocopies, or scanned PDFs.
At ExpressVisaSG, we handle thousands of Indian passports annually and have built an institutional security infrastructure specifically designed to protect this irreplaceable document from the moment of pickup to the moment of return.
