waktu saya pertama kali ke Singapore, saya masuk lewat batam juga
saya malah sama sekali nggak tau kalo ada peraturan nggak bole masuk bawa rokok 
ke Singapore
atau harus lapor di bandara atau di harbour nya
saya bawa 1 slof marlboro ijo menthol, dan nggak lapor karena emang ngak "ngeh" 
itu tadi

nggak ketauan sih,
tapi temen saya yang tinggal disana agak shock waktu dia tau saya bawa rokok 
sebungkus dan lolos x-ray maupun imigrasi..dia bilang kalo ketauan, denda nya 
bisa dari $S 500 - $S 1,000

Singapore emang bukan surga bagi perokok..
dimana2 udah dilarang merokok...kecuali tempat2 tertentu aja

you could either choose : nggak usah ke Singapore lagi, atau berhenti 
merokok...:-))

salam,
deedee

share aja pengalaman tahun lalu

waktu itu masuk singapore lewat batam.....
waktu itu bawa 2 bungkus rokok
yang satu dah di buka, satu lagi masi baru
waktu mau keluar dari imigrasi petugasnya saya beritahu kalau saya bawa rokok
dan dia cuma minta yang baru itu di buka dan di ambil satu (dibuang)
karena kami berdua, jadi yang satu lagi dianggap kepunyaan teman saya........ 
...begitu katanya.

waktu itu saya juga gak tau peraturan pastinya....
jadi untuk pengalaman aja
ada baiknya kalo ke singapore buat yang belum tau atau kurang ngerti tentang 
peraturan di singapore ini, memberitahu petugas terlebih dahulu..... saya yakin 
mereka pasti mau bantu koq

thanks

Buat sobat2 sekalian yg ada rencana ke singapore, ada baiknya berhati-ati 
dengan Cigarettes Policy yg diterapkan si singapore mulai 1 januari 2008. Sudah 
terbukti pada kawan yg sy jumpai disana dia harus bayar $200 untuk 4 bungkus 
rokok yg dibawanya (itupun jg karena dia blm tau ttg kebijakan itu shg petugas 
yg bersangkutan masih memberi keringanan).

selengkapnya di : http://www.customs. gov.sg/topNav/ new/SDPC+ Cigarette+ 
Marking+Regulati on.htm

SDPC Cigarette Marking Regulation 
SDPC-marking on Every Stick of Cigarette 

With effect from 1 January 2009, all duty-paid cigarettes sold in Singapore 
will be legally required to be marked with the letters “SDPC” (which stands for 
Singapore Duty-Paid Cigarettes).

All cigarettes will continue to be sold in packets bearing the graphic health 
warning lables as stipulated by the Health Sciences Authority (HSA).

The SDPC will be marked on every individual stick of cigarettes. 

How Does a SDPC-marked Cigarette Look Like?

What Does the New Regulation Mean?

>From 1 January 2009, all cigarettes without the SDPC-marking in Singapore will 
>be deemed illegal. Therefore, anyone caught selling, buying, or having in 
>possession cigarettes without the SDPC marking will be committing an offence 
>under the Customs and GST Acts. 

Why is there a Need for this New Regulation?

The new marking regulation seeks to achieve the following objectives:

To reinforce Singapore Customs’ intensified operations to keep contraband 
cigarettes off the streets,

As a measure to visibly differentiate duty-paid cigarettes from contraband 
cigarettes to enhance detection by our enforcement officers, and

As deterrence to curb the peddling and buying of contraband cigarettes in 
Singapore

What are the Penalties?

Anyone caught selling, buying, or having in possession of duty unpaid 
cigarettes without the SDPC marking will be committing an offence under the 
Customs and GST Acts.  For every packet of duty-unpaid cigarettes, buyers will 
be fined $500. Illegal peddlers will be arrested and charged in Court.Offenders 
will be fined or sent to jail or both
