Re-enter Singapore after EP Cancellation Exit

mdpappu

Hi Everyone,


My Employment Pass has been canceled, and I plan to leave Singapore on August 4th. I intend to stay in Johor for 2-3 days and then return to Singapore using a Short-Term Visit Pass (STVP). My wife works here and is pregnant, so I need to return to Singapore as soon as possible to support her. Will it be an issue if I return shortly after my exit?


Thanks!

@mdpappu if you are an stvp holder as of now, once you exit singapore you wont be able to enter as its a single entry exit visa

@Fidha Nazar I got 90 days of Short-Term Visit Passes after EP cancellation. I will exit Singapore on 4 August. I will try to get a new Short-Term Visit Pass after exit. My plan is to come back to SG using that after 2-3 days. My question is that will it be an issue if I return shortly after my exit?

@mdpappu Yes, that WILL be an issue!

It is a VERY bad idea to circumvent Singapore visa ules by exiting for a short time - you are very likely to be denied entry.

If you cannot get an extension, you MUST exit Singapore for good!
