Frequently asked questions
What is Singapore's Employment Pass?
The standard work visa for foreign professionals. Requires a job offer paying at least S$5,000/month (S$5,500 in finance) and passing the COMPASS points assessment. Initial duration: up to 2 years, renewable up to 3.
What is the ONE Pass?
The Overseas Networks & Expertise Pass — for individuals earning at least S$30,000/month or with exceptional achievements in tech, science, arts, or sport. Allows working for multiple employers simultaneously.
Which industries hire foreigners in Singapore?
Banking and finance, fintech, AI/tech, pharmaceuticals and biotech, logistics and shipping, professional services, and oil & gas.
How much tax do I pay in Singapore?
Personal income tax is progressive from 0% to 24%. There's no capital gains tax. A foreigner earning S$100k typically pays around 7–8% effective rate — much lower than most Western countries.
Can I bring my family on an Employment Pass?
