Singapore VPN: Providers With Servers in Singapore, Ranked by Network and Privacy

What a Singapore server does for you

Three situations call for one. Expats and travellers hit bank and government logins that reject foreign IPs, and a Singapore exit avoids the block on foreign addresses without any guarantee the checks disappear. Users in Malaysia, Indonesia or Australia get a short path to an Asian hub, which matters for game regions hosted there. Residents use it the other way around: the tunnel hides their traffic from Singtel or StarHub while the local IP keeps Singaporean sites working normally.

The top three side by side

Where each of them loses points

Surfshark's problem is censorship bypass: 1.9 here, because NoBorders is its only obfuscation and none of the newer proxy protocols appear. Its privacy score also carries the Nine Eyes membership and the fact that connection IP and timestamps are stored briefly, deleted within 15 minutes after each session.

FastestVPN earns zero for bypass since no obfuscation counted, and its security column rests on the kill switch and WireGuard alone. What saves it: a Cayman registration outside every Eyes alliance, an audit by Altius IT, and a price far below the other two, including a one-off lifetime plan at $40.

TorGuard is the mirror image. Its network score of 8.3 is the best of the three and its anti-blocking kit is the richest: a stealth protocol built on Shadowsocks and Stunnel, plus VLESS with Reality, VMess, Trojan and Shadowsocks in its V2Ray app. Against that stands a USA / Five Eyes home, no audit of any kind, no transparency report or warrant canary, and a 7-day refund that excludes crypto, gift cards and dedicated or streaming IPs.

Why the order here differs from the main ranking

Network carries 40% of the weight on this page, which pushes large fleets up and privacy-first services with small networks down. IVPN scores 9.0 for privacy yet lands fifth with a network score of just 2.5; LunoVPN sits fourth at 5.04. Treat the page score as "good Singapore exit" and the overall score as "good VPN in general".

All 138 services, in numbers

If a free plan is what you are after, the trade-offs live on our free VPN with Singapore servers page. Transparency is thin across the list: only 12 providers have an independent no-logs audit, only 10 state they run their own servers rather than renting, and 129 of the 138 do not publish whether their locations are virtual.

Check the location before the refund window closes

Almost nobody publishes whether the Singapore server is real, so test it yourself. Verify the exit IP against two geolocation databases, sign in to the Singaporean service that matters to you, and measure ping on your own connection. Surfshark's 7-day trial exists only on 12- and 24-month plans and charges the card automatically when it ends, so set a reminder.

Is using a VPN legal in Singapore?

Yes. Illegal activity stays illegal through a tunnel, but the tunnel itself is fine. The regulator IMDA requires ISPs to restrict access to a limited number of mass-impact websites (mostly pornographic) plus unauthorised remote gambling sites under the Gambling Control Act 2022; its internet regulation page states that it does not monitor what individuals browse.

FAQ

Short answer

Surfshark if you want the best-rounded Singapore exit from a big network. FastestVPN if the budget decides. TorGuard if you need to get past blocking and accept trusting a Five Eyes provider without an audit.
