Singapore

In Singapore abortion is legal until less than 24 weeks for social reasons. Women from abroad will only be able to undergo abortions in private hospitals. A legal abortion in a public hospital is restricted to citizens of Singapore, wives of Singapore citizens and women that have resided in Singapore for a minimum duration of four months.

In the United States, there are a number of clinics that provide abortions after 20 weeks. The costs vary widely depending on the number of weeks of pregnancy and type of anesthesia used, and range from US$ 1,500 to $10,000. Abortions after 23 weeks are more expensive.
