They have a question in the visa application "Have you ever entered Singapore using a different passport or name?"

    The answer seems to be so obviously "Yes" that I must be missing something. Why are you unsure about what to answer?

    You say you've changed nationality, so surely you must have a different passport?

    @Norah Changing your name's spelling legally is the same thing as changing your name.

You should answer Yes.



Even if you hadn't spelled your name differently, because you used a different passport you would have to answer 'yes'. You should explain the circumstances fully.



Even if the name change was the only issue it would be better to answer 'yes'. The authorities are likely to look at the issue and treat it as a trivial matter. However if you don't tell them they may think you have something to hide, and technically you would have lied on an official form.



It is almost always better to put information on an official form if you are in doubt.



And to an organization that largely deals with written records, a change of spelling will be considered a change of name.
