Overseas Networks and Expertise Pass holders are given the flexibility to explore new opportunities. We understand that this could take time. Therefore, you do not need to immediately leave Singapore if you become unemployed.

However, we will request annual information on your professional activities and income over the past year. This is to ensure that you are contributing meaningfully and to assess your pass renewal after 5 years.

Your pass status may be affected if you have long periods of unemployment without a valid reason.
