Case Study
ABC Agriculture Company has imported a solid pellet fertilizer which is much needed for agriculture purposes for their farms in Singapore. However, the fertilizers were held by the Immigration Checkpoints Authority officers. After clarifying with the authorities, the manifest had declared 29% Ammonium Nitrate in the fertilizer. Unfortunately, the allowable concentration of solid mixture for Ammonium Nitrate is below 28% as referred to the Arms and Explosives Act and beyond that, an Arms and Explosive License is required to be shown.
Therefore, the fertilizer was denied entry to Singapore.
In conclusion:
ABC Agriculture Pte Ltd is required to apply for Arms and Explosive License from Singapore Police Force (SPF) before arranging for the importation of fertilizer in Singapore.
Immigration and Checkpoint Authority has incurred control on behalf of various agencies over the import and export of the following:
- Radiation Protection and Nuclear Science Department (RPNSD)

- Pollution Control Department (Hazardous Substances)
- Pollution Control Department (Ozone Depleting Substances)
