The 2015 TCR International Series Singapore round was the ninth round of the 2015 TCR International Series season as well as the second round of the 2015 TCR Asia Series season. It took place on 19–20 September at the Marina Bay Street Circuit.

## Success Ballast

Due to the results obtained in the previous round and in the Sepang round of the TCR Asia Series, Pepe Oriola and Philippe Descombes received +30 kg, Stefano Comini and Eric Kwong +20 kg and Jordi Gené and Michael Choi +10 kg. Nevertheless, Descombes and Kwong didn't take part at this event, so they will take the ballast at the first round they will participate.
