Employment Pass

Singapore self-employed immigration involves the applicant registering a Singapore company and applying to the Ministry of Manpower as a shareholder, director, or senior manager to obtain local residency or a visa (Employment Pass (EP) or EntrePass). After operating the company for two years and meeting certain conditions, the applicant can apply for Permanent Residency (PR) for themselves and their family.

Application Conditions:

To apply for an Employment Pass in Singapore, specific eligibility criteria must be met

  • Experience: The main applicant must demonstrate extensive work or entrepreneurial experience, showcasing a strong background relevant to the intended role in Singapore. This experience should align with the professional standards expected for the position.

  • Education Certification: Applicants with educational qualifications from Chinese institutions must provide a certification report from the China Higher Education Student Information and Career Center. This ensures the authenticity and recognition of their academic credentials.

  • Company Establishment: Applicants must establish a company in Singapore and actively participate as a shareholder and director or senior manager. This demonstrates their commitment and involvement in the local business environment.

  • Salary Standards: The salary for the position should meet or exceed the Professional, Managerial, Executive, and Technical (PMET) benchmarks set by the Ministry of Manpower. This ensures that the remuneration is competitive and appropriate for the role's responsibilities.

  • Compass Scoring System: Applicants must meet the criteria outlined by the Compass scoring system, which assesses various factors such as qualifications, work experience, and the value they bring to Singapore's economy. This system ensures that only highly qualified individuals receive an Employment Pass.
