This pass can be granted by two authorities &#8211; the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) or the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Long Term Visit Pass (LTVP) Provided by MOM<\/h3>\n<p>The MOM offers LTVP to select family members of valid Employment Pass (EP), S Pass, EntrePass, and Personalised Employment Pass (PEP) holders. The application for this pass must be processed by the employer of the primary pass holder or an approved third party for EP and S Pass holder&#8217;s dependents. For dependents of EntrePass and PEP, the main pass holder must initiate the application. This pass can last up to 2 years and its duration is connected to the validity of the main pass holder&#8217;s pass. It can be renewed up to the length of the primary pass or as desired, whichever is shorter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Eligibility Guidelines<\/h3>\n<p>For EP, S Pass, and PEP pass holders to apply for an LTVP, they need to satisfy the following conditions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They should be common-law spouses, unmarried disabled children above 21 years old, or unmarried step-children under 21 years old.<\/li>\n<li>The pass holder must have a stable monthly income of $6,000.<\/li>\n<li>To apply for parents, the pass holder must have a steady monthly income of $12,000.<\/li>\n<li>The main pass holder&#8217;s employer should sponsor the pass.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Criteria for EntrePass holders include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They should be common-law spouses, unmarried disabled children above 21 years old, or unmarried step-children below 21 years old.<\/li>\n<li>Total annual business spending must equal or exceed $100,000.<\/li>\n<li>The company needs to employ a minimum of 3 local qualifying salary holders (LQS\u00b9) or 1 local professional, manager or executive (PME\u00b2).<\/li>\n<li>To apply for parents, the total business spending annually should be $200,000 or more, and it should employ at least 6 LQS or 2 local PMEs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The LQS (previously known as FTE) stands for Singaporeans and Permanent Residents (PR) who receive a monthly salary of at least $1,400 and receive CPF contributions for at least 3 months.<\/p>\n<p>Local PMEs refer to professionals, managers, executives who are Singaporeans or Permanent Residents, have a monthly income of $3,900 or more, and receive CPF contributions for a minimum of 3 months.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) Given by ICA<\/h3>\n<p>The ICA issues LTVP to foreigners who meet certain conditions, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Spouses of a Singapore Citizen (SC) or Permanent Resident (PR).<\/li>\n<li>Children under the age of 21 years of an SC or PR.<\/li>\n<li>Parents of an SC or a PR.<\/li>\n<li>Graduates from an Institute of Higher Learning seeking a job in Singapore.<\/li>\n<li>Mother or Grandmother of a child or grandchild studying in Singapore on a Student\u2019s Pass.<\/li>\n<li>Visitors are requesting to give birth in Singapore.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Long-Term Visit Pass\u2013Plus (LTVP+) program was launched in April 2012 for foreign spouses of SCs. This pass offers a longer stay period for holders, is initially valid for three years, and can be extended up to five years for each following renewal. LTVP+ passport holders are eligible for healthcare and employment benefits. The application process for LTVP and LTVP+ is identical, and eligible applicants will be automatically considered for LTVP+.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Working in Singapore With a Long Term Visit Pass (LTVP)<\/h3>\n<p>An LTVP holder can work in Singapore as long as they have a legit work pass like the EP, S Pass, Work Permit, or EntrePass. As soon as they receive a work pass, the LTVP will be revoked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding Long Term Visit Pass (LTVP) A Long Term Visit Pass (LTVP) is essentially a long-stay visa that permits eligible foreign nationals to reside in Singapore.
