(一) 就业准证
此准证适用于固定月薪至少5000新元的外国专业人士（所有国籍）。资深申请者需满足更高的薪资要求才能符合条件。
有效期: 新公司的 EP 的初始有效期通常为一年，随后可根据公司业绩续签2至3年。
续签标准:EP 持有人需确保企业正常运营，且您所就职的企业不能处于停业状态。EP可在准证到期前3个月内申请续签。
所需文件:
- 您的护照
- 公司在新加坡会计与企业管理局注册的最新业务概况或即时信息
- 您的最高学历证明（最多2份），例如，学位证书。所有国家/地区均需提供其他文件
- 已填写的就业准证申请表
- 视具体情况而定，需提供额外支持文件。就业准证申请成功率取决于以下因素:
- 您的资历（包括学历、专业资格、工作年限、专业技能、相关工作经验、薪资等）
- 新加坡公司的经营状况（对于新公司而言，充足的实缴资本、业务性质、与客户签订的谅解备忘录（MOU）/发票/合同等尤为重要）。请注意，在提交就业准证申请之前，必须先注册公司。
处理时间: 就业准证申请平均需要8周，如果您被人力部随机选中进行进一步检查，则处理时间可能会更长。
批准: 就业准证申请获得批准后，人力部将签发一份原则批准函(IPA) 。 此原则批准函有效期为6个月，您可以使用此原则批准函进入新加坡，完成人力部手续。首次持有就业准证者需要进行体检。
请注意，仅凭原则批准函无法在新加坡开始工作。在等待就业准证卡签发期间，若需提前开始工作，您需要人力部签发的通知函(NL)。此通知函有效期为30天。通常情况下，文件验证和指纹注册（如果需要）成功后， 就业准证卡将在四个工作日内送达雇主。
