Singaporeans can visit Liechtenstein for up to 90 days within 180 days from the date of initial entry within the Schengen region without a visa, provided no employment is pursued.
Liechtenstein is part of the Schengen area. Entry into any of the 26 European countries in the Schengen area for short-term tourism, a business trip, or in transit to a non-Schengen destination, requires a minimum three months’ passport validity beyond the intended date of departure. Singaporeans should have their passports with them when crossing borders, even within the Schengen area.
As immigration requirements can change at short notice, travellers are advised to contact their travel agent or the Consulate of Liechtenstein in Singapore for the latest information.
The crime rate is low, but petty crime, including pickpocketing, does still occur. Exercise caution and do not leave your personal belongings unattended.
Roads are generally in good condition. However, winter driving can be difficult and dangerous especially in mountainous areas. Monitor the regional weather forecasts and road conditions before the journey. Drivers are also strongly recommended to have winter tyres and snow chains. If in doubt, seek the advice of the car rental company or local authorities.
Drivers should adhere to the local road regulations. It is compulsory to have a warning triangle within reach. Radar detectors are prohibited. Any breach of the regulations can result in penalties including fines and imprisonment.
Alpine hazards occur throughout the year in Liechtenstein, including avalanches, snow drifts, flooding, glacial crevasses and thunderstorms. Visitors who intend to participate in sports activities should ensure that they are adequately equipped and physically fit. Visitors are also advised to monitor weather forecasts, participate in activities in larger groups, and follow the advice of experienced local guides. Purchase comprehensive travel insurance before departure and ensure that your insurance plan covers your chosen sports activity.
Overseas Travel – Be Informed & Be Safe [Updated on 5 February 2024]
Singaporeans planning overseas travel are reminded to take the necessary precautions, including being prepared to deal with accidents, natural disasters or terrorist attacks. Singaporeans are also reminded to be familiar with your destination’s local laws, customs, and COVID-19 regulations.
Demonstrations do occur in major cities across the world. Such demonstrations can sometimes escalate into violence. It is important for Singaporeans to keep abreast of local news, avoid any protests or demonstrations and heed the advice of the local authorities.
When participating in outdoor leisure activities overseas, Singaporeans should be mindful that certain sporting activities, especially in open seas, may carry risks. Besides ensuring that one has the physical competencies and appropriate condition to undertake the activity, every effort should be made to ascertain if the trip organiser or guide is reliable and competent, and that appropriate safety and contingency plans are in place. When in doubt, Singaporeans should consult the relevant professional bodies or sporting associations for specific advice.

Advisory: Email Scams
There have been reports of individuals receiving scam emails/messages purportedly sent from friends in distress overseas. These emails/messages typically originate from an email address/social media known to the receiver bearing claims of the sender getting into trouble overseas and urgently requesting financial assistance. The sender would also claim to have approached a Singapore Embassy/Consulate and the local Police for help to no avail.
MFA takes the safety of all Singaporeans very seriously. Singaporeans in distress approaching our Overseas Missions for assistance will be rendered with all necessary consular assistance. If you receive such emails/messages from purported friends seeking funds transfers, we strongly advise you to call them first to verify the authenticity of the emails/messages before responding to their request. It is also not advisable to give out any personal information such as NRIC/passport numbers, address, telephone number, etc. Any form of reply, even one of non-interest, could result in more unsolicited emails. Members of the public who suspect that they have fallen prey to such scams should report the matter to the Police immediately. Should Singaporeans abroad require consular assistance, they can contact the nearest Singapore Overseas Mission or call the Ministry of Foreign Affairs 24-hr Duty Office at +65 6379 8800/+65 6379 8855.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a ministry of the Government of Singapore responsible for conducting and managing diplomatic relations between Singapore and other countries and regions.
