<p>On 8 November 2021, the Multi-Ministry Taskforce (MTF) announced calibrated adjustments to Safe Management Measures (SMMs) for the Stabilisation Phase. In line with this, the Singapore Tourism Board ("STB") has updated the SMMs applicable to tours.</p><p> </p><p>These measures may be adjusted further, subject to the prevailing public health situation in Singapore. The following changes to the SMMs will apply: </p><p> </p><ul><li>With effect from 10 November 2021: <ul><li>For tours that involve F&B components<a href="#_ftn1">[1]</a>, entry into shopping malls or attractions, or indoor activities where masks are not worn, the maximum number of participants in each group within such tours is capped at <strong>2</strong> pax.
