ICA Document Checklist for holders of Employment Pass or S Pass
Oftentimes, our clients ask “What documents do I need to translate and notarise?”
We checked on ICA’s website and downloaded a document that is essentially an Explanatory Note and Document Checklist for holders of Employment Pass (EP) or Special Pass (S-Pass), who wish to apply for Permanent Residence (PR) in Singapore.
IMPORTANT!
Please ensure that all the required documents are submitted within 7 days/ 168 hours from the time you start the online application.

If you are single, have never been married before:
(1) Identity Card (if applicable)
