Summary:

Indian tourist numbers in Singapore topped one million in October, ahead of 2023, indicating a strong recovery in tourism. Singapore forecasts around 1.2 million tourists by 2024, representing a 12% rise, with India being the third-largest source market. Contributing factors include good air connectivity (280 weekly flights), unique attractions such as the Museum of Ice Cream, Singapore's proximity, and a simplified visa process offering multi-entry permits valid for up to a year.

Indian visitors are increasingly seeking experiential travel, visiting destinations such as the Museum of Ice Cream and the Mandai eco-tourism centre. Sustainability is a key focus of Singapore's tourism strategy, with initiatives such as the solar-powered Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay and Sentosa Island's 2030 carbon neutrality goals. Indian tourists spent roughly SG$ 1.52 billion in 2023, and with new attractions like Minion Land and Singapore Oceanarium, the tourism outlook remains positive for 2025, emphasizing sustainable initiatives.
