Verify the AVS Category before planning
AVS Singapore classifies countries based on rabies risk. Category A (rabies-free) gets simplified entry with a shorter quarantine. Category C triggers the full protocol: titre test, 6-month wait, 30-day quarantine. South Korea is likely Category C, but classifications can change.
Go to nparks.gov.sg/avs and confirm South Korea’s current category before committing to any timeline or spending any money on tests. If the classification has changed to something more favourable, your preparation time may be significantly shorter.
