About Singapore

Whether your company is sending employees to Singapore or expanding your worldwide footprint—Fragomen is here to help. Our experienced immigration professionals partner with businesses of all sizes to develop immigration strategies that can help you achieve your goals.

  • The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority grants a Visit Pass to most foreign nationals when they arrive in Singapore for both tourist and business purposes. Visitors (regardless of the purpose of the trip) from visa-required countries must still obtain an entry visa before travel.
  • Singapore permits ​limited business activities for visitors. Business visitors on a Visit Pass must limit their activities to attending business meetings and discussions.
  • Foreign nationals should obtain work authorisation/work pass even for short-term visits. Company-sponsored work pass categories include the Employment Pass for highly skilled professionals, the S Pass for mid-level skilled workers, and Work Permits for semi-skilled and unskilled workers.
  • The Employment Pass and the S Pass processes are subject to labour market testing, including advertising requirements and priority consideration of suitable Singaporean applicants before a foreign national is selected for a role or assignment, with some exceptions.

Fragomen can also consult on citizenship matters and, as permitted within the confines of local law, may be able to offer citizenship assistance.

Fragomen in Singapore is Fragomen Singapore Pte. Ltd., operating exclusively as an immigration consultancy and not a law firm in Singapore.
