Everything you need to know before your Bintan trip

Start from your home country. We’ll help you understand Singapore entry, Changi, ferry connections, Bintan arrival and what to do once you are here — step by step.

Bintan in 60 seconds

First time here? Start with the basics.

Bintan is an Indonesian island in the Riau Islands, commonly reached from Singapore by international ferry. The island is not one compact resort zone, so where you arrive and stay affects what is practical to explore.

Road travel matters in Bintan

Door-to-door guidance

How getting to Bintan works

You do not need to know ferry abbreviations or Bintan geography before you start. Think of the journey as a sequence of simple checkpoints.

1
FROM YOUR COUNTRYFly to Singapore Changi (SIN)

Choose a flight that gives you enough time for Singapore arrival formalities and the transfer to the ferry terminal.

2
IN SINGAPOREStay in Singapore or continue directly

Your best choice depends on arrival time, family/luggage, ferry schedule and whether you want time in Singapore.

3
FERRY GATEWAYGo to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal

Compare shuttle, taxi/private hire and public-transport context instead of choosing by price alone.

4
INDONESIACross to Bintan and clear arrival formalities

For Bintan Resorts, Bandar Bentan Telani (BBT) is the main northern arrival gateway.

START WITH THE FLIGHTSearch flights to Singapore Changi (SIN)

Compare routes from your city, then book through the airline or booking channel you trust. Protect enough time after landing for Singapore entry, baggage, the transfer to Tanah Merah and ferry check-in — the cheapest flight is not always the easiest connection.

THEN CHOOSE THE FERRYYour flight and ferry are separate reservations

Once your Singapore arrival is clear, check the ferry operator’s current schedule for your date, choose a realistic sailing, then save that ferry time in the Companion. Always confirm the final schedule and fare with the operator before payment.

Documents without the confusion

Singapore and Indonesia entry guidance

Singapore and Indonesia are two separate border journeys. Your passport can have different requirements for each country, so the Companion checks them separately and links every changeable rule back to an official authority.

SG

Entering Singapore

  • Passport validity and general entry requirements
  • Whether your passport is on ICA's visa-required list
  • SG Arrival Card reminder where applicable
Check current ICA requirements ↗ Reviewed 2026-09-04
Why we still show official links: We explain the current guidance first, then ask you to verify time-sensitive immigration information before travelling. Entry decisions always belong to the relevant authority.
Singapore → Bintan

The ferry, explained like you've never done it before

Flight and ferry are separate journeys. The Companion helps you understand when to leave Changi or your hotel, how much buffer you have, and what the ferry operator currently publishes.

SINGAPORE · GMT+8Tanah Merah Ferry TerminalTMFT
~70 mininternational ferry
BINTAN · GMT+7Bandar Bentan TelaniBBT

CURRENT ONE-WAY ECONOMYS$62 adult

Published fare; prices and fees can change.

ECONOMY CHECKED BAG20 kg / person

Review current baggage rules before travel.

Changi → ferry terminal

Choose transport for your situation, not just the cheapest fare.

A solo traveller with one cabin bag may make a different choice from two adults, two children, a stroller and four suitcases.

Airport–TMFT shuttle

S$5 / person

Published as an approximately 15-minute airport–ferry transfer. Timing matters because it operates within published hours.

Good value when the schedule fits.
🚕

Taxi / private hire

Direct, low-friction

Useful when you have children, several bags or a tighter connection. Actual fare depends on destination, traffic and surcharges.

The Companion explains why it recommends this.
MRT

Public transport

Useful for Singapore stays

Changi Airport connects to the MRT network via Tanah Merah or Expo for trips into Singapore. The ferry terminal itself still needs the final practical transfer.

Best when you have time and manageable luggage.
