# Can a Singapore entry ban or refusal of entry be overturned, and how soon can I try?

Last updated: 2026-08-12

- Yes, it can be overturned. For the full process (evidence, the appeal letter and what happens after you submit), see our [Appeal for Entry service](https://www.eh-immigration.com/services/singapore-immigration-appeal-entry-services).
- How soon: ICA does not publish a fixed waiting period. What matters is whether you can show something ICA has not already weighed, such as resolution of the original offence, proof of rehabilitation, an employment offer or family ties in Singapore.
- Applying again with nothing new rarely changes the outcome, so it is worth getting the evidence in place before you submit.
