DOVE TRAVELS / VISA INFORMATION

Authorised Visa Agents (AVA) by the Singapore High Commission

A practical guide to Singapore visa applications, official forms,
photograph requirements and authorised submission procedures
for Indian passport holders.

A Singapore visa application involves more than completing a form.
Applicants must ensure that their passport information, supporting
documents and photographs meet the requirements of the relevant
Singapore authorities.

The Singapore High Commission in New Delhi works with appointed
Authorised Visa Agents (AVAs) to facilitate visa applications
within its jurisdiction.

Dove Travels has brought together essential application information
and useful documents on this page to help travellers understand
the process before submitting their applications.

01 / APPLICATION CHANNELS

What Is an Authorised Visa Agent?

An Authorised Visa Agent is appointed by a Singapore overseas
mission to facilitate visa applications within its designated
area of responsibility.

For applicants residing in India, the relevant Singapore mission
and its authorised agent network depend on the applicant's
location and the applicable consular jurisdiction.

Applicants should confirm an agent's current authorisation
through the appropriate Singapore mission before submitting
their application.
