The Singapore Employment Pass (EP) is a work visa issued by Singapore's Ministry of Manpower for foreign professionals, managers, and executives to work in Singapore.
EP is initially valid for up to 2 years, renewable for up to 3 years. Experienced professionals with in-demand skills may qualify for 5-year passes.
EP holders can apply for Dependent Passes for their families. The EP provides opportunities for global talents and their families to work and live in Singapore, while also making you eligible for Permanent Residency.
Singapore EP is suitable for foreign professionals, managers, and executives. Applicants must secure a job in Singapore with a minimum monthly salary of S$5,000.
The Ministry of Manpower also considers the following factors comprehensively:
1. Age: Ideally between 30-45 years old
2. Education: Bachelor's degree or higher preferred
3. Rich management or business experience preferred.
Singapore Self-Employed EP is suitable for foreign entrepreneurs and executives. Instead of finding a job, you need to establish your own company in Singapore and operate a business there.
By registering a company in Singapore that you own shares in, and then applying for an EP through your own company, you can achieve the purpose of obtaining an EP and eventually eligibility for Singapore PR.
Important: The Singapore company needs to maintain continuous operations to ensure subsequent EP renewal and Singapore PR application.
