Visa for Singapore and New Zealand

[Meg]

I'm going to Singapore, then New Zealand and Australia 3 weeks today. I've got an Australian visa but suddenly gone into a panic about whether I need anything more than a UK passport for Singapore and New Zealand. Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.

You won't need a visa for New Zealand, as long as you're just there for a holiday & not to work & you show immigration your outbound ticket & where you're staying you should be fine, singapore I imagine will be the same but check with a travel agent just to be on the safe side.

As long as it's a short stay, no visa required.

Singapore require 6 months validity - New Zealand and Australia don't on a quick check

Thank you Minko and dzug for such quick answers. Your advice is greatly appreciated! ATB, Meg.

Just to back up the other answers:

Quote:
"British and Irish passport holders do not require visas to visit Singapore for a stay of less than one month, if they have a passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the departure date from Singapore, a confirmed onward return ticket and sufficient funds for their stay in Singapore."

(Click 'Consular Services', then 'Visa requirements for entry into Singapore').

The information for NZ should be on this site but I can't get the relevant pages to load:

However, I've previously read (on that site) that you don't require a visa. Anyway, Dzug's never wrong ;-)

NZ say they require three months to go on your passport but no visa

My passport has loads of time on it, I've got onward tickets, I've got hotel bookings and I have sufficient funds (I hope)! Thanks to all for your help, you've put my mind at rest. I will peruse the links that have been sent to me. Many thanks, Megxx
