When I moved to Dubai from the uk I had to buy a new tv as it needs a special receiver or something to work in Dubai.
Does anyone know if a tv bought in Dubai will work in Singapore?

If it a multi-system, multivoltage model, should work with no problem. Just check the manual to see if it will run 115-240V and PAL/BG/NTSC, etc. if it does, no sweat. Most TV made in the past 10 years or so usually are multisystem.

Interesting. I would have thought a UK TV would work in Dubai since both are PAL. Then, I read up on PAL... turns out there is PAL I in UK and PAL B/G in Dubai/Singapore.
A UK TV would work video wise according to what I read, audio would not.
And, a TV purchased in Dubai should work in Singapore.

I brought a TV from the UK. It's maybe 8 or 9 years old - a sony.
It works fine in singapore, even on the signal from the condo's antenna.
