Singapore and Malaysia to launch VTL across Causeway from Nov 29
The land scheme will only be for citizens, PRs and long-term pass-holders of both countries for now
Singapore
SINGAPORE and Malaysia will launch the much-anticipated Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) for land, for a restricted group of travellers, on Nov 29 - the same day the quarantine-free scheme for air travel between the neighbours takes off as they restore connectivity.
The land scheme will only be for citizens, permanent residents (PRs) and long-term pass-holders of the country they are entering, as priority is given to them to visit their families, announced Singapore's Prime Minister's Office on Wednesday (Nov 24).
