Important information about your destination
Customs and traditions
Buddhism is the main religion in Singapore, closely followed by Christianity. Islam is also an important religion and is practised by a significant proportion of the population.
In sacred places, it is important to follow certain rules and appropriate behaviour out of respect for the religious beliefs and practices of the faithful. In particular, it is expected to dress decently, covering shoulders and knees. Shorts, short skirts and low-cut tops are not appropriate. It is often customary to take off one's shoes. Silence and discretion are also essential. Finally, be sure to follow any instructions/rules posted in these areas.
The main festivals are Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Pusa (Muslim festival marking the end of Ramadan), Deepavali (Hindu festival celebrating lights), Hari Raya Haji (Muslim festival marking the end of the pilgrimage to Mecca) and Christmas.
In Singapore, it is important to respect local customs and social norms if you want to make a good impression:
Modesty and politeness are appreciated. Violent gestures and noisy behaviour should be avoided.
Punctuality to appointments is important.
Respecting elders is important. In public transport, for example, you should give priority seating to the elderly. Be careful not to encroach on other people's personal space, especially in public places.
Tipping is not common or compulsory in restaurants, hotels or cabs. Services generally include a service charge and VAT in the prices displayed. However, if you wish to show your appreciation for satisfactory service, a small discreet tip is sometimes accepted.
Haggling is not a common practice in Singapore, especially in shops and established commercial outlets where the prices displayed are often fixed. You are expected to pay the amount indicated. However, in some street markets or small stalls, there may be some room for negotiation on prices, especially if you are buying in bulk, but this is limited compared to other cultures.
A few prohibitions to be respected:
- Smoking: Singapore has very strict smoking regulations. Smoking is strictly prohibited in enclosed public places and certain areas such as parks, beaches and covered pedestrian zones. Specific areas are set aside for smokers. Electronic cigarettes are banned and importing them carries heavy fines.
- Chewing gum: The import and sale of chewing gum is prohibited in Singapore, except for specific medical purposes.
- Rubbish in public places: It is compulsory to keep public places clean by not littering them. Failure to do so can result in heavy fines.
- Eating and drinking on public transport: Eating and drinking on buses, trains and in underground stations is prohibited to keep these areas clean.
