Practical Information

You need to have a valid passport to fly to Singapore from Canada, with at least six months validity from the date you arrived. As immigration might ask to see your onward or return ticket, we recommend booking your flights from Singaporebefore you arrive.

We recommend arriving at Sydney Airport at least 90 minutes before flight departure.
