If you are bringing or taking ornamental fish into or out of Singapore as pets, you do not need to obtain the Licence to Import or Export Ornamental Fish, as long as you keep within the personal allowance stated in the sections 'Bringing in Ornamental Fish' and 'Taking Ornamental Fish Abroad' below.
