Unlike the Employment Pass, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mom.gov.sg\/passes-and-permits\/entrepass\/eligibility\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ministry of Manpower (MOM)<\/a> sets no minimum salary at application, but renewal depends on hitting business spending and hiring milestones.

It\u2019s not a general startup visa. The applicant must personally hold operational control of the business, and the underlying entity must be registered with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acra.gov.sg\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Three conditions decide whether you\u2019re even in the right lane:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The company must be a private limited entity registered with ACRA, not a sole proprietorship or partnership.<\/li>\n<li>If the company already exists, the applicant must hold at least 30% of shareholding personally.<\/li>\n<li>Companies older than 12 months at the time of application get assessed against renewal criteria rather than initial eligibility, which is a stricter bar.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Beyond those baseline conditions, MOM sorts applicants into one of three qualifying routes: Entrepreneur, Innovator, or Investor. Each has its own evidentiary bar, and picking the wrong lane wastes months. The next section breaks down exactly what proof each route demands.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-are-the-three-entrepass-eligibility-routes\" tabindex=\"-1\">What Are the Three EntrePass Eligibility Routes?<\/h2>\n<p>Every EntrePass application gets built around one of three qualifying routes, and the paperwork differs sharply between them. Matching your profile to the correct route before you start assembling documents saves real time.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Route<\/th>\n<th>Who it fits<\/th>\n<th>Core evidence MOM expects<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Entrepreneur<\/td>\n<td>Founders with early funding or incubator backing<\/td>\n<td>Signed investor letters, term sheet, bank receipts showing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mom.gov.sg\/passes-and-permits\/entrepass\/documents-required\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">funding of roughly S$100,000 from a single round<\/a> or backing from a recognized incubator or accelerator<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Innovator<\/td>\n<td>Founders with registered IP or research ties<\/td>\n<td>IP registration certificates (WIPO or national IP office), or a Research Collaboration Agreement with a Singapore-based institution<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Investor<\/td>\n<td>Founders with a track record of founding and exiting businesses<\/td>\n<td>Sale and purchase agreements, ACRA incorporation records, valuation history, prior funding rounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Beyond route-specific evidence, MOM expects a standard document set from every applicant:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Passport bio page and a current CV showing entrepreneurial or technical background.<\/li>\n<li>A business plan of 10 pages or fewer covering product, market, and financials.<\/li>\n<li>Bizfile or ACRA extract confirming company registration and shareholding.<\/li>\n<li>Financial statements or bank statements demonstrating funds or revenue.<\/li>\n<li>Notarized translations for any document not originally in English.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognized incubator letters and signed term sheets carry disproportionate weight in Entrepreneur-route applications. Vague or unsigned investor correspondence is one of the fastest ways to stall a file, so pair every letter with bank or escrow confirmation where you can.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-apply-process-fees-and-timelines\" tabindex=\"-1\">How to Apply: Process, Fees, and Timelines<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/vivos.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1788446573256_How-to-Apply-Process-Fees-and-Timelines-overview-diagram.jpeg\" alt=\"How to Apply: Process, Fees, and Timelines \u2014 overview diagram\"><\/p>\n<p>Applications go through MOM\u2019s online eService, and only the applicant or an appointed employment agent can submit. Fees are modest compared to the paperwork burden: S$105 for the application and S$225 upon issuance, plus S$30 for each Multiple Journey Visa if your travel pattern needs one.<\/p>\n<p>The process runs in a fairly fixed sequence:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Submit the application with the full document set through the MOM eService.<\/li>\n<li>Receive an In-Principle Approval (IPA), which functions as a single-entry visa valid for six months to enter Singapore.<\/li>\n<li>Enter Singapore within the IPA window and complete pass issuance, including fingerprint and photo registration where required.<\/li>\n<li>Set up SGWorkPass and Singpass access, then wait for the physical card, typically delivered within about five working days of registration.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Most applications process within roughly six weeks. A few habits speed things up:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Submit a fully bundled application rather than filing documents piecemeal.<\/li>\n<li>Attach notarized translations directly alongside the original documents, not as a separate follow-up.<\/li>\n<li>Plan your travel to land comfortably inside the six-month IPA window rather than at the deadline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"how-is-the-entrepass-renewed\" tabindex=\"-1\">How Is the EntrePass Renewed?<\/h2>\n<p>Renewal is where most EntrePass holders get caught off guard. The pass runs one year initially, the first renewal is also capped at one year, and subsequent renewals extend to two years. Each renewal cycle tightens the bar.<\/p>\n<p>MOM measures renewal against two figures: Total Business Spending (TBS), meaning your company\u2019s local operating expenditure, and local hiring, meaning Singaporean or PR employees on payroll. Both thresholds rise as the company matures.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Renewal stage<\/th>\n<th>Typical spending expectation<\/th>\n<th>Typical local hiring expectation<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>First renewal<\/td>\n<td>Modest, company still ramping up<\/td>\n<td>At least one local hire common<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Second renewal<\/td>\n<td>Meaningfully higher spending<\/td>\n<td>Two or more local hires often expected<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Third renewal and beyond<\/td>\n<td>Sustained higher spending<\/td>\n<td>Growing local team expected<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>These figures move over time, so confirm exact current thresholds directly with MOM before filing. What doesn\u2019t change is the recordkeeping burden behind them.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep clean payroll records showing CPF contributions for local hires.<\/li>\n<li>Retain signed employment contracts and invoices tied to local spending.<\/li>\n<li>Reconcile bank statements against your TBS claims before submission.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Falling short of thresholds without a credible explanation is the single most common reason renewals get rejected outright. Providers may handle the <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/vivos.com.sg\/singapore\/corporate-secretary-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">corporate secretarial<\/a> and bookkeeping side of this so ACRA filings and financial records stay renewal-ready year over year, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/vivos.com.sg\/blog\/singapore-entrepass-eligibility-criteria-and-renewal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EntrePass renewal criteria<\/a> deserve a closer read if you\u2019re already a few months from your renewal window.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"entrepass-vs-employment-pass-which-should-i-choose\" tabindex=\"-1\">EntrePass vs Employment Pass: Which Should I Choose?<\/h2>\n<p>The two passes run on entirely different logic. The Employment Pass is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edb.gov.sg\/en\/business-insights\/insights\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-work-passes-in-singapore.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">salary and COMPASS-points based<\/a>, meaning your qualifying salary and points score against fixed benchmarks. The EntrePass runs on innovation and funding evidence instead, with no salary floor at all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you can comfortably pay yourself a market-rate salary and clear COMPASS benchmarks, the Employment Pass is usually the more predictable route.<\/strong> It skips the funding-proof and renewal-milestone complexity entirely.<\/p>\n<p>EntrePass tends to fit better when:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You\u2019re pre-revenue but backed by a recognized incubator or investor round.<\/li>\n<li>Your company\u2019s value sits in registered IP or a formal research collaboration.<\/li>\n<li>You plan to bootstrap salary low in year one and can\u2019t yet meet EP salary thresholds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Founders who qualify for an EP today but expect to scale fast sometimes start there and pivot to EntrePass later once the business needs a structure built around funding milestones rather than payroll.

Package every letter and bank document signed and dated, with certified translations attached, not separate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong> <em>Route confusion is the quietest rejection cause. Applicants blend Entrepreneur-route funding evidence with Innovator-route IP claims and end up with a file that satisfies neither route fully.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Before travel, confirm your IPA validity window, book your issuance appointment, and bring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Original passport and IPA letter.<\/li>\n<li>Any documents MOM flagged as pending during review.<\/li>\n<li>Proof of a Singapore address for card delivery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"how-vivos-supports-entrepass-applicants\" tabindex=\"-1\">How Vivos Supports EntrePass Applicants<\/h2>\n<p>Some service providers handle <a href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/vivos.com.sg\/manage-your-business\/incorporation\/international-investors-and-founders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">incorporation<\/a>, nominee resident director appointment, registered address, and corporate secretarial filing that MOM\u2019s document checklist demands, alongside immigration filing support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFounders lose weeks chasing the wrong documents for their route. We build the corporate structure and the evidence file in parallel, so the EntrePass application and the company itself are ready at the same time,\u201d says Ray Tay, Managing Director of Vivos.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"our-take-where-the-real-bottleneck-sits\" tabindex=\"-1\">Our Take: Where the Real Bottleneck Sits<\/h2>\n<p>Most guidance on EntrePass requirements treats eligibility as the hard part. It isn\u2019t. The three routes are clearly defined, and MOM\u2019s documents page spells out exactly what counts as evidence for each. The real bottleneck sits at renewal, months after approval, when spending and hiring records have to hold up under scrutiny.<\/p>\n<p>Founders who treat incorporation, payroll, and bookkeeping as an afterthought during the first year almost always struggle at first renewal. The pass doesn\u2019t fail because the business idea was weak. It fails because nobody kept a clean paper trail of local spending and hires from day one.<\/p>\n<p>If there\u2019s one thing worth prioritizing before you even file the initial application, it\u2019s setting up proper corporate secretarial and accounting infrastructure immediately, not after the pass is issued. Founders who can genuinely meet Employment Pass salary thresholds should also weigh that route seriously rather than defaulting to EntrePass out of assumption. It\u2019s often the simpler path, not the lesser one.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>\u2014 Ray<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"get-your-entrepass-application-right-the-first-time\" tabindex=\"-1\">Get Your EntrePass Application Right the First Time<\/h2>\n<p>Some firms offer an integrated alternative to piecing together incorporation, immigration filing, and compliance across separate providers. One team may handle Singapore company incorporation for foreign founders, nominee resident director, registered address, and corporate secretarial filing, plus the immigration paperwork your EntrePass file needs, without coordinating three separate vendors. Similar support may be available for founders setting up in Malaysia, Hong Kong, and the UAE.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/vivos.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1784081147152_vivos.jpg\" alt=\"Vivos\"><\/p>\n<p>Your next step is a document checklist review: send over your funding, IP, or track record evidence, and get a straight answer on which route fits before you file anything.
