Hi ,

My wife will be travelling to India shortly using AP.

Forward Journey :

San Francisco to HongKong to Singapore to India

I just spoke to an officer at the Korean Consulate and he confirmed that she does not need a Transit Visa and any other Visa if she does not plan to get out of the Airport. The phone # is Telephone : (415)921-2251

I also tried calling the Singapore consulate at (415) 543-4775 but the message asks to send an email at sincgsf@aol.com

I am planning to send an email.

Does anyone has any recent experiences travelling using AP thru these countries to India and if any of these require Transit Visa.
 
No transit visas are required for Indian citizens for transit thru any of these countries : HongKong, Singapore, South Korea.
I have travelled thru these transit points between SFO and India and was never asked for a visa.
 
Don't need transit visa

Just flew back last week on Singapore Airlines. As long as you do not exit the airport u need no transit visa.
 
On arrival visa

For Singapore, you can get visa on arrival at Singapore airport. This will allow you to go out of the airport, do some shopping or whatever. This was the case couple of years ago. I have done this myself. But please check with them. Unlike US, Singapore is very crazy in their immigration system for that matter their entire system. They keep changing immigration laws very often for advancement.;) ;) ;)
