1. Source of Statistics

Visitors arriving in Singapore are required to complete the Disembarkation/Embarkation (D/E) cards, which serve as the source of statistics on visitor arrivals. The accuracy of figures pertaining to the characteristics of visitors is subject to the accuracy with which the D/E cards are filled up. Since April 2004, fields such as (1) Purpose of Visit (2) Accommodation (3) Frequency of Trip and (4) Travel Arrangement had been removed from the Disembarkation/Embarkation card.

2. International Visitor Arrivals

All visitors are classified by country of residence unless otherwise stated. Total visitor arrivals include all visitors arriving by air and sea and non-Malaysian citizens arriving by land.

3. Geographical Classification

The term "ASEAN" stands for "Association of South East Asian Nations" and refers to the ten-country political association comprising Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. However, when used in the statistical tables in this publication, the term excludes Singapore.

4. Length of Stay

Data on length of stay in this report reflects the actual length of stay in Singapore. The date of arrival is matched against the date of departure to compute the actual length of stay for each visitor. As some visitors may not depart within the calendar year, the number of visitor departures would be less than the total visitor arrivals for the year.

5. Visitor Days

Visitor Days is the total number of days that international visitors stay in a country outside of their country of residence, whose main purpose of visit is other than the exercise of an activity remunerated from within the country visited. Visitor Days = Visitor Arrivals x Average Length of Stay.

1. Methodology

Data on visitors profile are obtained mainly from the Overseas Visitors Survey. The annual survey covers a sample of about 26,000 visitors departing Singapore via air, sea and land checkpoints. Face-to-face interviews are conducted with visitors at the departure points throughout the year. The sample is selected based on a quarterly quota, which is set according to the actual visitor arrival statistics from the same quarter of the previous year. In addition, the data collected are weighted by country of residence, age group and length of stay, based on actual visitor arrival statistics compiled from the D/E cards. This ensures that the profile of visitors surveyed resembles the distribution of visitor arrivals in the total population.

2. International Visitor Arrivals All visitors are classified by country of residence unless otherwise stated. Total visitor arrivals include all visitors arriving by air and sea and non-Malaysian citizens arriving by land.

3. Geographical Classification

The term "ASEAN" stands for "Association of South East Asian Nations" and refers to the ten-country political association comprising Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. However, when used in the statistical tables in this publication, the term excludes Singapore.
