Repatriation cases will be handled by airlines

Passengers denied entry into Singapore and stuck at Changi Airport as a result of the latest travel measures, and show no symptoms of illness, will be treated in the same way as travellers who are refused entry into the country for other reasons, such as visa-related issues.

The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority has already suspended the issuance of all forms of new visas to those with PRC passports issued in Hubei. MOH said information has already been disseminated to airlines, which are expected to inform their passengers of the new travel restrictions and should check passengers' visas before flying them over.

In addition, the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Home Affairs said that all non-essential travel for Singapore Armed Forces and Home Team personnel to mainland China will be deferred.
