"Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents must have a valid Casino Entry Levy to enter the casino. Person eligible to enter casino must be 21 years old or above. All entry levies are strictly non-refundable and non-transferable. Entry levies collected are paid to the Singapore Totalisator Board for social or charitable purposes. SCPRs who enter the Casino Premises without paying or overstaying shall be liable to a fine of not exceeding S$1,000."

From the website FAQ...

 

19. Why do you have such an odd policy?

The entry levy is legislated by the Singapore Government to prevent addictive gambling. It is not a policy enacted by Resorts World Sentosa.

 

20. Which other countries have similar levies?

We are not aware of any other country with a similar policy.

 

reali weird... dun think this will keep off addictive gambler... they wun be borther abt the $100.. it's us who will...

1. Do I need to buy a levy?

Only Singaporeans and Permanent Residents of Singapore need to buy an entry levy to enter the casino. A S$100 entry levy lets you stay in the casino for up to 24 consecutive hours. You can also buy a $2,000 entry levy that gives you unlimited entry to Singapore

i think the garment wants to track each of us going to casino...

 

to buy this $100 ticket, u need to scan yr IC or passport. This way, garment already have yr data on how many times you go to casino to gamble.

 

one is to prevent addictive gambling (thats what they say). I'm sure there are more reasons to this.....

Btw the price for 1 whole day is $66... :D cheaper than $29.50 for a 30min ride on flyer i guess..those pasar malam rides at Bishan already cost $6... <_<

 

also cheaper than HK, $80 for weekday and $100 for weekends...US even more...USD$69... [rolleyes]

 

Total 24rides in it...I wana play!! [rolleyes]

 

 

UNIVERSAL Studios on Wednesday announced the long-awaited ticket prices for its theme park on Sentosa.

 

A one-day pass for weekdays will cost $66 for adults, $48 for children and $32 for senior citizens. For weekends, public holidays and eve of public holidays, a day-pass will cost $72, $52 and $36 respectively.

 

For those who want to beat the snaking queues which are expected at theme parks, they can buy an express pass, on top of the regular admission charge. The express pass is $30 for weekdays and non-school holidays, $48 for weekday rates during school holidays, and $68 for weekends and black-out dates. This express pass will give the ticket holder priority access to all the attractions and rides within the theme park. The number of such passes are limited daily.

 

Visitors to the park need pay only one price to get access to 24 attractions, 20 of which will be open when the park is ready for operations, along with 30 themed restaurants and food carts, as well as another 20 retail shops and kiosks.

 

The theme park is expected to greet its first visitors early next year when the $6.59 billion integrated resort, Resorts World at Sentosa, opens its doors. In the first phase of its opening, it will open the theme park, casino, four hotels, a theatre with a aerial circus show and a half-kilometre strip of restaurants, bars and retail outlets.
