In order to attract investors from all over the world to develop locally, Singapore has set up the Global Business Investor Program, through which investors who are interested in starting a business or investing in Singapore can apply for permanent residency. Here are five ways to organize Singapore immigrants. Welcome to read!

Article 1 Five Ways of Immigration in Singapore

Singapore Immigration Mode 1: Investment immigration has a short application time, which is the fastest and most direct permanent immigration mode at present. There are two schemes, both of which must meet the basic application qualifications.

Scheme A: Invest at least S $2.5 million (about HK$ 654.38+HK$ 4.3 million) to set up a new company or expand existing business operations.

Scheme B: Invest at least S $2.5 million (about HK$ 65,438+HK$ 4.3 million) in a fund of the Global Business Investor Program (GIP).

Basic application qualification:

Applicants must have at least three years of entrepreneurial experience and submit the audited financial reports of the company for the last three years;

The company's turnover in the last year and the average annual turnover in the last three years must reach at least S $50 million (about HK$ 283 million);

If the applicant's company is private, it must hold at least 30% equity.

The advantage of GIP investment immigration is that it is more relaxed and has no academic qualifications, age and language requirements. Moreover, GIP immigrants can apply for permanent residency with their spouses and children below 265,438+0 pairs as affiliated applicants.

EntrePass, entrepreneurial immigration, applies to people of all nationalities. To start a business in Singapore, an applicant must meet any of the following innovation criteria and apply as an entrepreneur, innovator or investor.

Singapore Immigration Mode 2: Entrepreneurial Immigration

Applicants who want to start a business in Singapore can apply for EntrePass entry visas for entrepreneurs of all nationalities. Applicants must be over 2 1 year old, have started or intend to register a private limited company in Singapore, must meet any of the following innovation standards, and apply as entrepreneurs, innovators or investors. Applicants don't need to meet all the requirements of each profile or type, but having more qualifications will help. You can apply for a permanent visa after living for 24 months. In addition, after certain conditions are met, the applicant can apply for family permission for his spouse and children under 2 1 year, or apply for PR after 1 year, or bring his family members to apply for PR.

Singapore Migration Mode 3: Skilled Migration

Skilled immigrants who hold work visas and are employed by local companies can apply for permanent residency in Singapore after obtaining employment permits. Work visas are divided into three categories, among which the success rate of middle and senior managers and senior technicians is higher.

Singapore Immigration Mode 4: Student Visa

International students studying in Singapore can apply to become permanent residents of Singapore as long as they meet three conditions at the same time:

1. Have lived in Singapore for two years or more.

2. Students studying in Singapore

3. Pass the Singapore exam. At present, the three most common national examinations in Singapore are: junior high school entrance examination, middle school graduation examination and high school graduation examination.

Singapore Immigration Mode 5: Marriage Immigration

As long as you are married to a Singapore citizen or permanent resident, you are eligible to apply for local permanent residents, and you can get permanent residency after being approved by the government.

Article 2 Application Requirements for Environmental Protection Work Permit in Singapore

EP Permit is a work permit issued by Singapore government to attract more foreign professionals and technicians to new jobs, and it is also a graded work permit issued by Singapore Ministry of Manpower. After the issuance, the applicant has no entry and exit restrictions during his stay. As long as the applicant is still employed after the expiration, he can renew it.

According to the identity of the applicant in the company, the employment permit can be divided into self-employment permit and ordinary employment permit. The difference between the two is that if the applicant owns shares in the company and applies as a shareholder, it is a self-employed employment permit, while if the applicant applies as an employee, it is a general employment permit.

I. Entry visas

Used for applications submitted directly to Singapore Immigration and Customs Bureau or Singapore Ministry of Manpower and approved, including the following types:

A person who has received a notice of permanent residence in Singapore from the Immigration and Customs Bureau.

In principle, people who are approved by the Immigration and Customs Bureau or the Ministry of Manpower of Singapore can be issued with various permits. Such as work permit, employment permit, student permit, long-term social access permit, professional access permit, etc.

Persons who have been approved by the Immigration and Customs Bureau and notified to obtain visas from the Consulate General of Singapore in Xiamen.

Note: Holders of China passport, international air ticket for connecting flight and third-country entry visa may be exempted from visa application within 72 hours after passing through Singapore.

Second, getting started

Almost all planes arriving and leaving Singapore use Singapore Changi Airport. There are shopping centers, restaurants, medical facilities, restaurants, saunas and other facilities in the airport. It takes about 6.5 hours for Beijing to fly directly to Singapore. When the plane descends and can see the oil tanker in Singapore Port, it will land at the airport.

The plane landed on the second floor of the lobby of Changi International Airport. From here, take the escalator to the entrance checkpoint on the first floor. Singapore used to deny entry to people with long hair and beards, but now it's basically okay as long as it's not too much.

When entering the country, you should show your passport, visa and entry-exit card filled out on the plane to the immigration bureau. After the Immigration Bureau stamped the passport with a 14-day stamp and returned the exit card of the entry and exit card to the passenger, the entry formalities were completed.

Occasionally, the immigration bureau will ask passengers to show their exit tickets and ask questions about the purpose of entry and the duration of stay.

After the immigration inspection, I went to the duty-free shop. Usually duty-free shops are only suitable for people leaving the country, but Singapore is a free port and immigrants can also buy duty-free goods.

Behind the duty-free shop is the baggage claim area. There are several baggage conveyor belts in the central hall, and you can pick up your baggage on the corresponding conveyor belts. After you claim your luggage, you can go through the customs. After completing the customs formalities, we arrived at the arrival hall, which means we arrived in Singapore. Arriving at the center of the hall is the information center, with hotel consultation and car rental desks on both sides.

Third, go abroad.

The departure hall of Changi International Airport is on the second floor. Check-in is here. Different airlines are at different counters.

Usually check in two hours before the plane takes off. The airport fee at Changi Airport is S $ 15, which is usually included in the air ticket. When checking in, passengers can put forward the seats they want to take.

After the checked baggage is delivered and the boarding pass is obtained, check in.

After that, it is the exit inspection. Show your passport and exit card at the exit checkpoint, and the immigration department will stamp the exit stamp on it. After the exit inspection, passengers wait for boarding in the waiting room of the flight they want to take.
