Traveling to Singapore just got a whole lot easier as Changi Airport now has automated lanes that all foreign visitors can use.

In a news release, the country's Immigration and Checkpoints Authority stated that foreign travelers can now use the automated lanes during the arrival immigration clearance process. This is regardless of nationality and the passport they hold.

Foreign visitors who have used the automated gates upon arrival can also use the automated lanes at departure immigration when they depart from Changi Airport.

Previously, the automated lanes during departure and arrival immigration clearance were only reserved for Singapore residents and passport holders in 60 jurisdictions.

There is also no need for any registration before arriving in Singapore, further streamlining the arrival process.
