US President Donald Trump left the 44th G7 summit around four hours earlier than scheduled and departed directly for Singapore.
He reportedly viewed the G7 summit as a "distraction" from his summit with Kim.
Trump landed at Singapore's Paya Lebar Airbase at 20:20 local time and was welcomed by Singapore's Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan.
A US Air Force Boeing C-17 Globemaster III transport plane was already at the air base ahead of his arrival.
Trump stayed at the Shangri-La Hotel Singapore, which has also hosted previous US Presidents.

North Korean chairman Kim Jong-un landed at Singapore Changi Airport on Sunday at about 14:35 local time and was welcomed by Singapore's Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan and Minister for Education Ong Ye Kung.
Kim flew to Singapore on a Boeing 747 operated by Air China, a plane used by the highest echelons of the Chinese leadership.
According to media reports, a cargo plane, an Air Koryo Ilyushin Il-76, containing food items and other perishables landed in Singapore from North Korea before Kim's plane landed.
Chiller trucks ferried them to the St. Regis Hotel Singapore where Kim stayed.
A third plane from North Korea, an Air Koryo Ilyushin Il-62, landed shortly afterward; Kim's sister and Vice Director of the Propaganda and Agitation Department, Kim Yo-jong, was believed to be on board.
