In this Mobility Minute, we discuss the Singapore government's policy updates surrounding student pass holders and their guardians. The Singapore government has relaxed these policies, making it easier for foreign student pass holders to apply for Permanent Residency and providing guardians with more options to obtain a Long Term Visit Pass.
This video is available in English and Mandarin. (English Version: Featuring Assistant Business Immigration Manager Shirley Kock. Mandarin Version: Featuring Senior Manager Amy Zhang.)
