Singapore Work Pass Applications, Managed End-to-End

Hiring or relocating foreign professionals into Singapore means navigating the Ministry of Manpower's pass framework, salary benchmarks, and the COMPASS points system. A weak or poorly positioned application costs time and, often, results in rejection.

E&H prepares and manages work pass applications end-to-end: assessing eligibility and COMPASS score, benchmarking salary, framing the role correctly, compiling documentation, submitting to MOM, and handling appeals where needed.

From a single senior hire on an Employment Pass to a founder on an EntrePass or a family relocating on dependant passes, we make Singapore immigration predictable for both employers and candidates.

Looking for an Employment Pass Agency in Singapore?

If you are comparing an employment pass agency, a work visa consultant, or an EP application service, the right partner should assess both the candidate profile and the sponsoring company before anything is submitted to MOM.

Our Employment Pass application service is built around that pre-submission review: we check salary benchmarks, COMPASS risk areas, company documentation, and family pass needs so you have a clear picture of your chances before applying.

A clear, guided process

4

Approval & relocation

On approval we handle pass issuance and guide the employee and their family through relocation and onboarding.

Why expert handling changes the outcome

Work pass approvals are not automatic. MOM weighs salary, qualifications, the employer's local workforce profile, and COMPASS points together — and a self-filed application that misreads any one of these can be rejected, delaying a critical hire by months.

Our specialists know how each factor is assessed and present the case accordingly, which materially improves the odds of a clean, first-time approval.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What salary is required for a Singapore Employment Pass?
The qualifying salary rises with the candidate's age and differs by sector, with higher thresholds in financial services, and is assessed alongside COMPASS points. Because MOM revises these thresholds periodically, we benchmark the specific role and candidate against the current requirement before applying.
What is COMPASS and how does it affect my application?
COMPASS is MOM's points-based framework for Employment Pass eligibility. It scores salary against sector benchmarks, qualifications, workforce diversity, and support for local employment. We run a COMPASS assessment on every candidate before submission.
How long does an Employment Pass application take?
Most applications are processed within a few weeks, though timelines vary with the candidate profile and MOM's workload. Complex cases or requests for additional documents can extend this — we keep you updated throughout.
Can my family join me in Singapore?
Yes. Eligible pass holders can sponsor a spouse and unmarried children under 21 on Dependant's Passes, and in some cases parents on a Long-Term Visit Pass, subject to meeting the salary threshold. We handle these alongside the main application.
What happens if a work pass application is rejected?
We review the grounds for rejection, strengthen the case where there is merit, and file an appeal — or advise an alternative pass route if that offers a more realistic path.
What is the difference between an Employment Pass and an EntrePass?
The Employment Pass is for professionals employed by a Singapore company, while the EntrePass is designed for entrepreneurs starting and actively operating a venture here. We advise which route fits your situation before you apply.
