ICA Singapore

The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) is a key agency in Singapore responsible for safeguarding the nation's borders against unauthorized entry of individuals, cargo, and conveyances via its land, air, and sea checkpoints. Committed to ensuring national security, ICA administers a variety of essential services, including the issuance of identity cards and passports to citizens, as well as immigration passes and permits for foreign visitors.

With a vision of secure borders and a safe Singapore, the ICA focuses on upholding laws related to immigration and national registration. The agency embodies values of integrity, commitment, and accountability as part of its mission to protect the nation while facilitating smooth travel for residents and visitors alike.

Beyond security, ICA also offers e-services for seamless interaction, such as checking application statuses and making appointments. As part of the Home Team under the Ministry of Home Affairs, ICA continues to advance its role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of Singapore’s immigration processes.
