September 29, 2022
According to a change in policy from the original COVID-19 vaccination requirement in place for Work Pass holders since February 2022, while COVID-19 vaccination will continue to apply to renewals of Work Permit and S Pass holders from the construction, marine shipyard and process sectors (which includes plants in the manufacturing of petroleum, petrochemicals, specialty chemicals and pharmaceutical products) or individuals residing in dormitories, it will no longer be a requirement for other work pass renewals from October 1, 2022. COVID-19 vaccination remains a requirement for new work and related pass applications (such as Dependent Passes).
