Changing
Money
Money changing services are available at
Singapore Changi Airport round the clock and
at most banks, hotels and shopping
complexes. While licensed moneychangers may
give a better rate than most hotels and
banks, visitors are advised not to change
money with unlicensed operators.
Most banks open from 9.30 AM to 3 PM on
weekdays and 9.30 AM to 11.30 AM on
Saturdays.
Credit/Charge Cards
Credit and charge cards are
widely accepted in Singapore. Hotels, travel
agents, retailers, restaurants and even taxi
companies these days readily accept
international credit and charge cards.
Tipping
While a 'thank you' in cash is
always welcome, tipping is not a way
of life here in Singapore. It is prohibited
at the airport and discouraged in hotels and
restaurants where there is a 10% service
charge. A tip should only be exercised
in instances where the bill does not include
a service charge.
