Man under  Singapore Customs probe for not declaring over $30k of Pokemon cards at changi airport

14Oct2025

 

The Singapore Customs is investigating a case where a man entering Singapore did not declare that he was in possession of assorted Pokemon trading cards worth more than $30,000 in total.

The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority said in a Facebook post on Oct 14 that its officers at Changi Airport had detected a large quantity of assorted Pokemon trading cards while screening baggage on Oct 10.

A 25-year-old Singaporean man had been directed to the baggage screening area in Terminal 1 for screening, ICA said. When questioned by ICA officers, the man said he had nothing in his luggage to declare.

ICA officers then screened the man’s luggage and found assorted Pokemon trading cards worth more than $30,000 in total.

The case was then referred to the Singapore Customs for further investigation, ICA said.

The Straits Times recently reported that Pokemon cards have made acomeback as niche investments, notably among young investors chasing returns that exceed traditional equities.

Travellers who are not sure if they need to declare their items should declare at the Red Channel or at the Singapore Customs Tax Payment Office, ICA said.
