These are mid-market rates — the rate banks trade at, published by the European Central Bank. It is not what you will be offered. Expect a card or exchange service to take 0.5% to 5% off it, which is exactly what our travel money comparison is for. Past movement doesn't predict future rates, and none of this is financial advice.

Singapore money & payments FAQs
Do Australians need a visa for Singapore?
No. Australian passport holders can enter visa-free for up to 90 days. You do need to submit the free SG Arrival Card online within three days before you arrive.
Is the SG Arrival Card free?
Yes, completely free at the official ICA website. It takes about two minutes and includes the health declaration. Any site charging a fee is a third-party reseller.
Can I use my Australian card on Singapore's MRT?
Yes. Singapore's SimplyGo system accepts contactless Visa and Mastercard directly, including via Apple Pay and Google Pay, so you don't need to buy a local transit card at all.
