Travelers entering Singapore will have to wear electronic device

Travelers entering Singapore who choose to serve the self-quarantine order outside of dedicated facilities will have to wear an electronic monitoring device throughout the 14 days, starting next Tuesday, announced by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA), Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and Ministry of Education (MOE) in a joint press release.

The devices use GPS and 4G or Bluetooth signals to determine if people on stay-home notices are within the range of their place of residence.

This order will apply to all travelers including Singaporeans, permanent residents, long-term pass holders, work pass holders and their dependents, except those under 12 years old.
