Destination Guide

Singapore is a compact, highly developed island city-state with strong opportunities in hospitality, tourism, security, finance, technology and logistics. The culture is multicultural, with Chinese, Malay, Indian and international influences, and English is widely used at work. Lifestyle is convenient and safe, with efficient public transport, excellent healthcare, diverse food, shopping and extensive urban parks. Housing and daily expenses can be high, especially near central areas, so salary and accommodation arrangements should be reviewed carefully. Foreign employees generally require an employer-sponsored work pass, such as an Employment Pass, S Pass or Work Permit, depending on qualifications, salary and occupation. The employer normally manages the application, while approval is subject to Singapore authorities. New arrivals should arrange suitable housing, insurance, banking and transport before starting work.
