The webinar is a precursor of the BIIA 2022 Biennial Conference where this topic will be further discussed in greater detail. For details click here. To register click here.
The BIIA 2022 Biennial conference is less than two months away and it is not too late to register. Just in time the government of Singapore has further opened the country for conferences and travel.
All vaccinated travelers can enter Singapore without quarantine from April 1, no need for VTL flights. The new travel scheme, named the Vaccinated Travel Framework, will replace the existing Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) scheme.
Fully vaccinated travelers do not require any entry approvals to enter Singapore; this means that travelers who were required to apply for vaccinated travel passes no longer need to do so. The air travel pass required as part of Singapore’s unilateral opening to Macau, China and Taiwan will no longer be required as well. All Short-Term Visitors are required to prepare an electronic or physical copy of their insurance policy to bring with them to facilitate their entry into Singapore.
In this edition of the Newsletter you will be able learn more about the conference and who will be speaking.
