Can I know more about the marriage programmes for Singaporean-Foreigner couples?
As transnational couple, Singaporeans and their prospective non-resident spouse may face unique challenges such as cross-cultural differences. They are highly encouraged to attend marriage preparation and support programmes. The programmes are designed to equip couples with practical information on community resources and information on living in Singapore to help foreign spouses adapt to life in Singapore.
Couples will also learn skills such as communication, conflict resolution and financial planning which can be applied in their marriage. If necessary, couples can also be referred to relevant community agencies for additional support.
If you are not married yet, you can sign up for the Marriage Preparation Programme when you submit a marriage application via the 'Our Marriage Journey' website.
For more information (such as on criteria and process) on the Marriage Preparation / Support programme, please contact any of the agencies listed below.
