SINGAPORE: A total of 265 foreign motorists were stopped at Singapore’s land checkpoints in late September over outstanding fines, the authorities said on Thursday (Oct 8).

Authorities recovered more than S$639,000 (US$499,000) in outstanding fines from them during a multi-agency operation from Sep 28 to Sep 30, according to a joint news release by six government agencies.

“During the operation, foreign motorists with outstanding fines were stopped and directed to settle their fines for vehicular and traffic offences when they entered Singapore at the land checkpoints,” the agencies said.

Singapore takes “a serious view” of foreign motorists who commit offences here and fail to settle their fines, they added, noting that authorities regularly conduct operations against such motorists.

From Nov 2, foreign-registered vehicles with outstanding fines for traffic, parking or vehicular emissions offences in Singapore will not be able to apply for or renew their Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP).

All foreign-registered vehicles must have a valid VEP to enter Singapore.

Foreign motorists are advised to check whether they have outstanding fines online and must settle them before applying for or renewing their VEP at LTA’s OneMotoring website.

Fines can be paid at AXS kiosks or through its website and mobile apps. Motorists can also make payment through the relevant Singapore agencies’ websites or at their customer service counters.

According to LTA’s website, payment service providers may take up to two days to process fine payments and update the records in the agencies’ systems.

新加坡：当局周四（10月8日）表示，9月下旬，共有265名外国驾车者因拖欠罚款在新加坡陆路关卡被拦下。

根据六个政府机构联合发布的新闻稿，当局在9月28日至30日的多部门联合行动中，从他们那里追回了超过63.9万新加坡元（49.9万美元）的未缴罚款。

“行动期间，有未缴罚款的外国驾驶员在陆路关卡进入新加坡时被拦下，并被要求缴纳车辆和交通违章罚款，”相关机构表示。

他们补充说，新加坡对在新加坡违法且不缴纳罚款的外国驾驶员“持严肃态度”，并指出当局会定期对这类驾驶员开展行动。

从 11 月 2 日起，在新加坡有未缴交通违章、停车违章或车辆排放违章罚款的外国注册车辆将无法申请或续签车辆入境许可证 (VEP)。

所有外国注册车辆必须持有有效的车辆进入许可证（VEP）才能进入新加坡。

建议外国驾驶员在线查询是否有未缴罚款，并在通过陆路交通管理局的 OneMotoring 网站申请或续签车辆使用许可证 (VEP) 之前结清罚款。

罚款可在AXS自助缴费机、其网站和手机应用程序上缴纳。车主也可通过新加坡相关机构的网站或其客户服务柜台缴纳罚款。

根据陆路交通管理局网站的信息，支付服务提供商可能需要最多两天的时间来处理罚款支付并更新机构系统中的记录。
