Immigration & International Mobility
Coordinate a Singapore Employment Pass application with employer readiness, COMPASS, role evidence and current eligibility assessed.
A Singapore Employment Pass requires a review of the job, applicant and employer. Meeting the qualifying salary does not automatically satisfy COMPASS, and available exemptions must be established from the actual facts.
We coordinate role and qualification evidence, the employer profile and current salary criteria. Fair Consideration Framework advertising and any exemption are assessed before submission. The permitted employer or appropriately licensed employment agent handles the relevant application route; company incorporation alone does not establish eligibility.
Provide the proposed contract, duties, qualifications, experience and employer workforce information. Agree verification, submission and follow-up responsibilities. Dependant passes, work commencement, payroll and renewals are separate workstreams unless included.
Coutts Consultants coordinates the agreed evidence and appropriately authorised immigration professional or permitted employer filing route. The quotation distinguishes employer, individual and dependant work and external charges. Authorities retain decisions and appointment availability; employment or business formation does not guarantee immigration permission.
