The police were alerted to the theft on May 7 when a box of supplements that cost S$507.30 (US$390) was discovered missing from the display shelf of a Guardian outlet in the transit area of Terminal 1.
The suspect was seen on CCTV allegedly leaving the pharmacy outlet with the unpaid item on April 14. The police established her identity, but she had already left Singapore.
On November 2, the 51-year-old woman returned to Singapore and was arrested at Changi Airport while in transit for another flight, the police said in a media release on Tuesday.
She will be charged in court on Wednesday for theft.
