Singapore will extend its vaccinated travel lane (VTL) scheme to more countries starting from Nov 29, according to the Ministry of Health (MOH) on Monday (Nov 15). The country intends to launch VTLs with India and Indonesia from Nov 29, and with Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from Dec 6. ADVERTISEMENT Speaking at the COVID-19 multi-ministry task force press conference on Monday, Transport Minister S Iswaran said Singapore and India have been discussing the mutual recognition of vaccination certificates. Since Nov 12, India has started recognising vaccination certificates issued by Singapore. “This means that fully vaccinated travellers from Singapore entering India will no longer need to undergo post-arrival tests home quarantine, they will just need to self monitor for 14 days upon arrival,” said Mr Iswaran. MOH, added Mr Iswaran, has also updated its public health assessment and will upgrade India to Category 2 from Nov 19. "We are in discussions on the resumption of scheduled commercial passenger services (with India). As today the only flights from Singapore allowed to carry passengers to India are government charter relief flights under the Vande Bharat mission." ADVERTISEMENT He added that discussions with India are "progressing well", and there is an aim to resume two daily VTL flights each from Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai by Nov 29. "The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) will provide more details once finalised."
