In view of the recent developments in Syria, MFA advises Singaporeans against all travel to Syria for the time being. Singaporeans in Syria are strongly urged to depart as soon as they can do so while it is still possible to do so by commercial means.
Singaporeans who remain in Syria are strongly advised to avoid areas where demonstrations have been occurring and take all necessary precautions for their personal safety. They should be on high alert, monitor the news closely and eRegister immediately if not already done so at http://eregister.mfa.gov.sg/ so that we can contact them and render the necessary consular assistance. MFA and MUIS continue to closely monitor the situation and keep in close touch with our students and other Singaporeans remaining in Syria.
