Pokémon TCG
in Singapore
Three things a Singapore collector has to work out: what grading costs from here, which shows are on, and whether the price in front of you is a fair one. This page covers the first two and points you at the third.
Grading from Singapore
PSA bills in US dollars no matter where you send from, which is the part that catches people out. A tier that reads as a manageable number in USD is a different decision once it is converted, and the conversion happens twice — once on the fee, once on the card you are hoping to sell.
Below is what each open service level costs per card today. Shipping and insurance in both directions sit on top, and they are the line most submissions underestimate from this side of the world.
| Service level | USD | Approx. SGD | Max declared value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular | $79.99 | S$101.63 | $1,500 |
| Express | $149.00 | S$189.30 | $2,500 |
| Super Express | $349.00 | S$443.40 | $5,000 |
| Walk Through | $599.00 | S$761.03 | $10,000 |
PSA fees read August 2026; conversion at reference rates from 2026-08-24. Indicative, not a quote — your bank’s rate will differ, and PSA’s Value tiers are paused for new trading card submissions. Cards declared above $10,000 go to the Premium levels, which start at $999 per card.
Run your own card through it
The PSA Profit Calculator takes SGD directly, so you can put in what you paid and see the break-even PSA 10 rate without converting anything by hand. If your card might grade above the declared value cap in that table, the Upcharge Calculator shows what PSA rebills you for going over.

Card shows and events
64 events are on our Singapore calendar right now, and they cluster — a single Saturday routinely carries several. The next eight are below; the full list is on the Singapore trade show page.

Buying and selling here
A lot of Singapore’s secondary market runs on Carousell, with shop counters and show tables taking the rest. That matters for pricing rather than for convenience: eBay leaves a public record of what each card sold for, and Carousell largely does not, so there is no local sold-price history to read back.
A local asking price and an international sold price are two different numbers, and only one of them is evidence.
Where the shops are
The Pokémon Company’s own Singapore locator lists 215 shops once the 7-Elevens are set aside: 68 league GYMs that run play days and Ball League events, 22 dedicated card stores with buylists, the Pokémon Center at Jewel, and the toy and department stores that stock sealed product. The GYMs are the answer to “where do I start” — most have a Telegram group and a beginner session.

Bank TCG scans a card and returns what copies of it have actually sold for, raw and graded, so you can settle a price at a show table or against a listing without leaving the conversation. Browse the Pokémon card database on the web, or see what the market actually looks like — the median card is worth far less than the average, which is the single most useful thing to know before you overpay for one.

- How much does PSA grading cost from Singapore?
- PSA bills in US dollars wherever you submit from. The cheapest tier currently accepting trading cards is Regular at $79.99 USD per card, roughly S$101.63 at 2026-08-24 rates, before shipping and insurance both ways. Fees checked August 2026.
- Are there Pokémon card shows in Singapore?
- Yes. Our calendar currently lists 64 upcoming trading card events in Singapore, most of them free or low-cost entry, and most running Pokémon alongside Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic and One Piece rather than one game alone.
- How do I check what a Pokémon card is worth in Singapore?
- Price it against recent sold listings rather than asking prices. Local listings are quoted in SGD and international comps in USD, so the same card can look like two different prices depending on which market you are reading.
