Health measures

The health and safety of our customers, partners, and employees remains our top priority. To keep everyone as safe as possible, all attendees are required to comply with the health and measures, which will be supported by signage and staff on the ground. Should the measures change, any revisions will be made in accordance with guidance from the Ministry of Health Singapore following the Vaccination-Differentiated Safe Management Measures (VDS) and local government requirements. 

At AWS Summit Singapore the following health measures will be in place. 

Vaccinations

All badge holders at the AWS Summit Singapore will be required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as defined by the Singapore Ministry of Health to attend the Summit in-person this year.

Fully vaccinated: i.e. has received the appropriate regimen of World Health Organisation Emergency Use Listing (WHO EUL) COVID-19 vaccines (e.g. Pfizer-BioNTech/Comirnaty, Moderna/Spikevax, AstraZeneca/Vaxzeveria, Serum Institute of India/Covishield, Janssen, Sinopharm, Sinovac-CoronaVac, Covaxin, Novavax/Nuvaxovid and CanSinoBIO/Convidecia) including their respective duration post-vaccination for the vaccine to be fully effective and boosters for eligible individuals (please refer to the requirements to be considered fully vaccinated in Annex B), and had their vaccination records ingested in the National Immunisation Registry (NIR); or

  • Recovered from COVID-19: i.e. persons with:
    • Positive Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test result, positive Antigen Rapid Test (ART) result obtained at approved test providers, or positive serology test results attributable to past infection and not vaccination, and 
    • Have completed their vaccination regime including boosters; 
  • Recovered from COVID-19 with unvaccinated or incomplete vaccinated status within 180 days starting from the day of the first 
    • Positive PCR test result; or 
    • Positive ART result obtained at approved test providers; or
    • Positive serology test result attributable to infection and not past vaccination.
  • Individuals who are certified to be medically ineligible for all vaccines under the National Vaccination Programme that currently include Pfizer- BioNTech/Comirnaty, Moderna/Spikevax, Sinovac-CoronaVac and Novavax/Nuvaxovid COVID-19 vaccines will be eligible for vaccination differentiated SMMs. To be certified as medically ineligible, individuals may visit a doctor familiar with their medical condition, or alternatively, any clinic or hospital.

Travelers who are recognized as having taken the full regimen of World Health Organization Emergency Use Listing (WHO EUL) vaccines outside of Singapore will be reflected as fully vaccinated for 30 days upon their first arrival, for the purposes of entering premises subject to VDS. If their stay in Singapore exceeds 30 days, they will need to have their vaccination records ingested into Singapore’s NIR, and may be required to receive additional doses to continue to meet Singapore’s requirements for vaccination.

Masks

Mask use is optional at the AWS Summit Singapore as per local guidance and requirements. We strongly encourage badge holders to wear a mask in crowded places. Masks will be available for attendees who need them.
