State media, quoting an information ministry statement, says the world's oldest head of state left Friday for "a routine medical check-up" and will be back later this week. This is Mugabe's third Singapore visit this year.
Mugabe had been scheduled to address a campaign rally on Friday, but organisers say that has been cancelled due to the trip.
The opposition, which has called him a "non-resident president" due to his frequent foreign travels, has expressed concern over his health, saying he should retire.
