10 Singapore Laws You Won't Believe

Breaking Singapore laws can be a costly mistake. You won't believe the weird Singapore laws that are in the books, but stick around to find out!

10 Urinating in a Public Elevator
It is illegal to urinate in a public elevator in Singapore. Now you might be thinking sure isn’t that a law everywhere, well no it is obviously frowned upon, disgusting and rude but it’s debatable whether you’d be punished by law doing that in say.. the United States. The newest wave of elevators in Singapore come with a urine detector which if activated will shut the elevator doors and keep them shut until police arrive to open them.

9. Not Flushing Public Toilets
In Singapore there is an actual law that states you cannot leave an unflushed public toilet which will result in a $150 fine. Now catching someone not flushing would be hard to prove but that law is in the books.

8. Obnoxious Singing or Musical Instrument Playing
Singing in public in an obnoxious way or singing profanities can result in a fine or 3 months in jail where intentional obnoxious musical instrument playing can result in a fine of $1000.

7. Jaywalking
If you’re going to jaywalk, don’t do it in Singapore. A $20 fine can be issued on the spot with an additional $1000 fine or 3 months of jail time on top of that. Maybe it’s time to learn how to use the crosswalk.

6. Spitting in Public
In Singapore if you want to spit you’ll need to do that in the privacy of your own home as doing so in public will warrant you a $1000 fine. But really don’t spit at home, at least not on the floor.. that’s gross.

5. Disturbing Public Transit with Kite Flying
Playing with or flying a kite that disrupts public transit can result in a $5000 fine. I can definitely think of a better of spending 5 grand then on a kite flying fine.

4. Connecting to Someone Else’s Wifi
Singapore has a Computer Misuse and Cybersecurity Act that states using someone else’s Wifi as hacking, if caught you can receive 3 years in jail or a $10,000 fine or potentially both.

3. Selling Chewing gum
A first time offence for selling chewing gum can be up to $100,000 fine or a 2 year prison sentence unless it’s approved medicinal gum.

2. Graffiti
If you’re looking for a shocking and unique experience traveling abroad try spraying some graffiti in Singapore. You’ll get upwards of a $1500 fine, a caning and 3 years in jail. Probably best to put the cans down.

1. Using Drugs Before Entering Singapore
Singapore has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to drugs in their country. If you enter Singapore with drugs in your system you can receive a fine as high as $20,000 and up to 10 years in prison. Drug tests are can be conducted without a warrant by Singapore officials, if an obscene amount of drugs are found in your system they can impose the death penalty… yikes.
