thank you this is helpful! Do you know how "official" the rental contract needs to be? I am renting from a Thai landlord who just wrote me a receipt by hand
I would say it is at least somewhat confusing as I have heard of many people doing this exact thing several times in KL, and I would not expect the rules to be applied so inconsistently between embassies. But very good to know this before booking a flight to Singapore!
Ok thank you, this is super helpful! For some reason I had thought people were more likely to get rejected at a land border than by air. Sounds like this is definitely the way to go.
