SINGAPORE EXPATS FORUM
Singapore Expat Forum and Message Board for Expats in Singapore & Expatriates Relocating to Singapore

Hi Broadleaf, Not sure if this will help or just confuse you more, but I set up my own company in August 2009; I'm an Expat, have been here for over 6yrs now, had previously been on a P1 for 2yrs, then a few months on a Dependant's Pass while I got my plans together. I have a PR as another Director,...

I'm not a PR, and my question wasn't about collecting the EP! It was a question about issuing the EP, not collecting it, the 2 are very different. Once you have the EP application approved, I had to apply for the pass to be issued, which is a different process, and is done before you can collect the...

Hi Strong Eagle, Thanks for the responses earlier. It may be because its a 'proper' company, with 3 shareholders, who are unrelated - me, a PR and a UK resident and that I have been here for over 5yrs, 2 of them on a P1 pass, although this new EP is a Q1. I think that its the structure of the compan...

I applied for the employment pass through my own company that I set up. In the paperwork I have received, which is the In-principle Approval Letter, it clearly states that "You can apply for issuance of the pass using EPOL / Singpass" etc or "You can approach a licensed Employment Agency to carry ou...

I have applied for the pass and have approval for the pass, but I need to apply for issuance of the pass, which can be done either electronically through EPOL / Singpass or, according to the MOM, "You can approach a licensed employment agency to carry out this transaction on your behalf..."

I had the medical last week, and the main parts are still HIV and TB. I had spent 5 days in Hospital 3-4yrs ago in Singapore, and apart from asking what it was for, nothing else was said, nothing appeared about it in the paperwork that goes to the MOM, so I think you'll be ok. If you're worried abou...

Morning all, Has anyone used an employment agency for help with issuance of an employment pass? I have everything else ready to go, the medical forms etc, but can't apply for issuance myself through the MOM website, need to use an agency. Has anyone used one before, got any recommendations? I guess ...

Hi, I don't mean to be disrespectful to those who have helpfully replied to Pennant's thread, but I have had various knee problems over the last 10yrs, and although the suggestions here are well-intentioned, its a case of a little knowledge is dangerous! There are so many causes for knee pain, it ca...

Hi Liberty,

I've been looking around for people who play baseball, and this looks like a good alternative! Being a Brit, cricket is more my style, but I'm sure that I can adapt!

Great, many thanks!

Thanks KSL - not sure if forum rules allow you to name any firms you'd recommend or suggest?

Hi, While setting up a new company in Singapore, I've been quoted around $3000 for drawing up a shareholders agreeement, which to my mind is $3000 that I could make much better use of during the start-up period.. I fully appreciate why we need the agreement, but I object to paying a law firm $3000 f...

Hi, I am shortly setting up a company in Singapore with a colleague who is a Singapore PR, and another colleague who is resident in the UK, all 3 of us will be acting as Directors. Two quick questions: My PR colleague will have no issues with being a director; but I will be reverting to a Dependent'...

There's a decent size pool at the Delta Swimming Complex, Alexandra Road, just past the junction with River Valley and Lower Delta Road, but not sure of its exact size

Hi All,

Can anyone recommend a physiotherapist, ideally suited for sporting / running injuries?

Thanks in advance
