Singapore Tourism Board Rolls Out Plans To Woo Indian Travelers

The Singapore Tourism Board (STB) rolled out ambitious plans to make the city-state an even more desirable destination for Indian visitors in 2023 at South Asia’s leading travel trade event, SATTE, in Noida, as it aims to build on last year’s post-pandemic travel rebound.

This comes in along with announcement by the Indian government of removing all RTPCR requirements, in addition to all covid restrictions being lifted, for Indian travelers returning from Singapore with effect from 13th February 2023, 11 AM. This shall further facilitate fuss free travel for Indian visitors to Singapore.

Built around the theme ‘Ramping up Pathways to Recovery, Together!’, the STB’s vision for 2023 and the coming years includes a focus on positioning Singapore as a destination that offers rewarding travel experience to Indian travellers by broadening its appeal. STB will also sharpen its offerings in its family segment, Meetings and Incentive travel, and cruise tourism strongholds. 

GB Srithar, Regional Director, India, Middle East, South Asia and Africa, said, “A total of 48 Singapore travel industry partners are exhibiting at the Singapore Pavilion at SATTE 2023, making this Singapore’s biggest ever presence at SATTE. India has long been one of Singapore’s largest tourism source markets, and is only set to become even more important in 2023, bolstered by a strong recovery in 2022 of close to 50% of the visitor arrivals achieved in 2019. The year ahead in Singapore is exciting, with hotly-anticipated tourism developments and we invite many more Indians with different passion points, travel desires, and aspirations to enjoy our diverse, vibrant, and reimagined offerings.”
