申请就业准证(Employment Pass, EP)

Apply for an Employment Pass (EP)

就业准证(Employment Pass, EP)是新加坡为外国专业人士设立的一种工作签证,允许持有人在新加坡合法生活与工作,并自由进出境。EP适用于被新加坡公司聘用的外籍员工,也适用于计划自雇、在新加坡创办企业的创业者。

通过EP,您将成为新加坡的税务居民,享受0%-24%的个人所得税率。此外,EP持有者还可为配偶和21岁以下未婚子女申请家属准证(Dependent Pass, DP),并可为父母申请长期探访准证(Long-Term Visit Pass, LTVP)。在符合条件的前提下,未来可进一步申请新加坡永久居民(SPR)身份。

The Employment Pass (EP) is a type of Singapore work visa designed for foreign professionals to live and work legally in Singapore. EP holders can also enter and leave Singapore without needing an entry visa. It applies to both employed and self-employed individuals — companies in Singapore can sponsor EPs for their foreign employees, while entrepreneurs can apply by appointing themselves as executive directors of their Singapore-registered companies.

With an EP, you will become a Singapore tax resident and benefit from a personal income tax rate between 0% and 24%. EP holders can also sponsor their spouse and unmarried children under 21 for Dependent Passes (DP), and their parents for a Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP). In the future, with proper planning, the entire family may be eligible to apply for Singapore Permanent Residency (SPR).
