Singapore to raise entry permit fees for foreign-registered vehicles from 2027


SINGAPORE (The Straits Times / ANN) -- The Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) fees for foreign-registered cars and motorcycles and the Goods Vehicle Permit (GVP) fee for foreign-registered goods vehicles will be raised from January 1, 2027.
The annual 10 free VEP days and the free VEP hours on weekdays will also be removed, said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) on February 6. The authority said it reviews these fees periodically to ensure that the cost of owning and using a foreign-registered vehicle in Singapore is commensurate with that of a Singapore-registered vehicle.
It added that the cost difference has widened in recent years, “giving rise to the need to increase” the fees.
The VEP fee for foreign-registered cars and motorcycles entering Singapore will be raised to US$50 a day and US$7 a day respectively, from the current US$35 a day and US$4 a day.
From Jan 1, 2027, the VEP fee will apply on all days, except on weekends and Singapore public holidays. Currently, on top of weekends and public holidays here, those driving foreign-registered cars and motorcycles will get 10 free VEP days each calendar year.
They also do not need to pay the VEP if they enter Singapore from 5pm and exit by 2am the next day, or if they enter Singapore from 12pm and exit by 2am the next day during Singapore’s June and December school holidays.
The GVP fee for foreign-registered goods vehicles will be raised from US$40 to US$70 per calendar month. Owners of foreign-registered goods vehicles can continue to purchase the GVP at the current fee of US$40 before the revised fee comes into effect.
