Singapore is known for a compact, modern road network, making it a great fit for short urban and day-trip driving. Here's what to know about driving there, and how to prepare your documents before you go.
Traffic in Singapore moves on the left-hand side, so it's worth reading our left-hand driving guide before you pick up a rental car, especially at roundabouts and unmarked intersections.
Rental agencies and local authorities in Singapore commonly ask for your passport, your original driver's license, and an International Driving Permit translation document at pickup or during a roadside check. Carrying all three together helps avoid delays — see our full documents checklist.
Entry, driving, and car-rental requirements can change and vary by destination. Always confirm current rules with the relevant embassy, consulate, or local authority before you travel.
