Additional information

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there is a risk of yellow fever transmission in Niger. To fully protect yourself against yellow fever during your travels, you are advised to receive the yellow fever vaccination 10 days before your travels. All travellers, including Singapore residents, who arrive in Singapore from countries with risk of yellow fever transmission (i.e. regardless of area, city or region) are required to have a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate and present it to the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officer at the immigration counter upon arrival to Singapore.
The International Certificate of Vaccination for yellow fever is only considered valid 10 days after vaccination and the validity lasts for the life of the person vaccinated.
Travellers without a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate (e.g. unvaccinated individuals, including those who are ineligible to receive the vaccination, such as children aged 1 year old and below and individuals with contraindications, and travellers whose certificate has yet to become valid), are liable to be quarantined under Section 31 of the Infectious Disease Act for six days from date of departure from countries with risk of yellow fever transmission. Quarantine must be served at designated vector-free government quarantine facilities. Non-residents who refuse quarantine will be denied entry into Singapore.
Please refer to Communicable Diseases Agency's website https://www.cda.gov.sg/public/health-and-safety-abroad/ for the latest health advice for travellers to affected countries.
