Is my foreign spouse entitled to a long-term stay in Singapore after our marriage?

Updated by MSF
Marriage to a Singapore Citizen does not guarantee a non-resident spouse automatic right of entry into Singapore or approval for  long-term stay in Singapore. Couples who are interested in applying for a Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) are strongly encouraged to submit the Pre-Marriage LTVP Assessment (PMLA) together before marriage. The PMLA is a free online assessment tool for couples to find out more about each other, and if your prospective non-resident spouse is likely to qualify for LTVP after marriage.
