Japan–Singapore relations

Japan–Singapore relations or Singapore–Japan relations refers to the bilateral relations between Japan and Singapore, two highly developed Asian countries which share historical, economic, and political ties. While the two countries first established bilateral relations in 1966, some of the earliest relations date back from before the 15th century during the Muromachi period as well as the Ryukyu Kingdom. This continued for centuries until the most notable interaction with Japan's invasion of Singapore during World War II. The invasion led to a takeover of the country, after which Japan occupied Singapore for approximately four years before withdrawing following their loss in the war.

The two countries now benefit from heavy mutual trade, formally established through the 2002 Japan–Singapore Economic Partnership Agreement (JSEPA), which was Japan's first ever economic partnership agreement with another country.

Japan maintains an embassy in Tanglin, Singapore. Singapore has an embassy in Minato, Tokyo in addition to consulates-general in Sakai, Osaka and Nagoya. The current Japanese Ambassador to Singapore is Jun Yamazaki and the current Singaporean Ambassador to Japan is Ong Eng Chuan.
