As a foreigner or permanent resident, you are eligible for Government-Paid Paternity Leave as long as your child is a Singapore citizen and you meet the other eligibility criteria.

If your child is not a Singapore citizen, check with your employer on whether they provide company-paid paternity leave.

Employers are encouraged to adopt family-friendly measures such as paternity leave to allow employees to balance their family and work commitments. This will in turn help them to contribute more effectively at work.
