What Is an LTVP Medical Check-up?

A Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) medical check-up is a mandatory health screening required by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) in Singapore as part of the application or renewal process for the LTVP.

It is part of ICA’s public health assessment to ensure that applicants do not pose a communicable disease risk before being approved to stay long-term in the country.

At HealthScreening.sg, we offer LTVP medical check-ups from $30, with same-day appointments and 24-hour express report options available.

Our Tanjong Pagar Clinic is located in the Central Business District (CBD) at Anson Road, just a 4-minute walk from Tanjong Pagar MRT station. Our Orchard Clinic is situated in central Singapore, only a 2-minute walk from Orchard Boulevard MRT station (TE13).
