EP approval after MOM requested business and salary evidence
Travis Tay has over 15 years of immigration consulting experience. Employment Pass advice considers the candidate’s role and background alongside the employer’s actual business.
MOM requested business and salary evidence for an EP application by a newly established holding company. We helped prepare the response; the application was approved about ten weeks after filing. The case explains the documents and sequence. Individual outcomes do not predict another application’s result.
Company registration, with or without an Employment Pass
You need a Singapore company
Tell us the business activity, owners and proposed start date. We can quote for registration and the director and administration arrangements you need.
You also intend to work in Singapore
Tell us your role, background and proposed salary. We can review the Employment Pass requirements alongside the company setup.
Company registration for foreign founders
You can own 100% of a Singapore private limited company as a foreigner. Registration does not give you permission to live or work in Singapore. We help register the company and check the work pass requirements if you intend to work in Singapore.
Resident and nominee director requirements
Your company needs at least one director ordinarily resident in Singapore. A nominee director retains statutory duties. A nominee arrangement cannot remove those duties. Replacing a nominee requires an eligible resident director, the necessary work-pass permissions and proper appointment and filing; EP approval alone does not complete the change.
Company setup fees and costs
Company setup and Employment Pass support starts from SGD 8,888. Your quotation states which services are included and lists government fees, director arrangements and any separately charged banking, website or administration work. Paid-up capital is company funding, separate from our professional fee.
Information needed to register your company
- What your company will sell, and to whom.
- Who will own and manage it.
- Where the business will operate and how it will be funded.
- Whether you intend to work in Singapore, and your proposed timing.
