As a member of FIDI Global Alliance and having achieved FIDI FAIM top performer status, you can be assured that PSS and our partners in Singapore have the highest standards of professionalism in international moves.

Moving To Singapore

What Can't You Take to Singapore? Restricted and Prohibited Items

1 answer

Like most countries, Singapore has a list of products and goods that are either prohibited or have restrictions on importation, so it is important to know what will get through their customs clearance.

We highly recommend you check the FIDI Customs Guide for information on what can and cannot be imported into the country.

Failure to do so can result in your shipment being delayed in customs, refused entry or you may have to pay fines or fees for disposal of items.

Customs Clearance and Quarantine

1 answer

When your belongings in arrive in Singapore they will need to pass through customs. This can be a complicated and difficult process if you are not familiar with international removals.

Fortunately, as part of our service, we will handle the customs clearance process on your behalf.

For household removal of personal effects, you may not have to pay customs duty and taxes on all items.

There may be some additional charges such as inspection fees and quarantine charges you need to pay to the local customs authorities. These vary and so are not included in your quote.

There will be some forms you need to complete and other documentation you need to provide as evidence.

Your Move Manager will be able to talk you through this and you can also find out more details in our FIDI Customs Guide.
