1、 Singapore Investment Immigration
According to the relevant regulations of the Singapore government, foreigners who invest S $2.5 million can directly apply to become permanent residents of Singapore. The plan is mainly aimed at foreign entrepreneurs and aims to attract more entrepreneurs to invest in Singapore. Investors must first register a limited company and then submit an investment plan and relevant documents. The funds are deposited with the Singapore government, and the investment project must be operated for at least 5 years. Singapore investment immigration application conditions

If parents and parents in law need to apply for permanent residents at the same time, the deposit needs to be increased by S $300000 for each additional person. Children over the age of 21 need to apply separately, and there are great opportunities for approval.
2、 Singapore married immigrants
According to the relevant provisions of Singapore, foreigners married to Singaporean citizens or permanent residents are eligible to apply to become permanent residents, but the Immigration Bureau will examine and approve them on a case by case basis. It should be noted that in recent years, people who defraud permanent resident status by false marriage have been reported and their permanent resident status has been cancelled. However, because there are too many fake marriages cheating PR in recent years, it is difficult to get married and immigrate. Even if you marry a local, it's not easy to get a green card. Generally, you'll be given an ltvp + (commonly known as the wife permit, which is a substitute for the green card). With this ltvp +, you can live and work in Singapore, but you are not a local, have no benefits, and can't change your Singapore nationality. Only when you take ltvp + long enough (usually after having children) can you give a green card.
3、 Singapore special immigrants
Overseas art talents (art, photography, dance, music, drama, literature, film, etc.) can apply to the Immigration Bureau for permanent residence after being evaluated by the National Arts Council of Singapore and recommended. The applicant shall submit detailed personal resume and supporting materials (photo album, newspaper report, etc.).
Those who have made special contributions in various fields at the world level, such as the world champion of a certain sport, etc. Such persons can apply directly to become permanent residents of Singapore.
4、 Singapore skilled immigrants
The Singapore government welcomes talented people from all over the world to come to Singapore for employment and settlement. Immigration to Singapore through skilled migration requires the following conditions:
1. People with university degree or above and professional and technical talents can apply to become permanent residents of Singapore.
2. First, it needs to be employed by a local company and obtain an employment permit (EP).
3. The permit holder may submit an application for permanent resident to the Immigration Bureau and become a permanent resident (PR) after approval. It usually takes 3-6 months from application to approval.

3) Physical examination fee: S $200 / person
4) Residence permit fee is S $100 / person and visa fee is S $20 / person
5) Investment amount: 1.5 million Singapore dollars / household (changed according to different projects)
5、 Singapore self employed immigrants
Singapore self-employed immigrants achieve the purpose of immigration by hiring themselves. The first is to set up a company in Singapore and apply for an employment permit as an investor and director of the company. Six months after obtaining the employment permit, you can apply for permanent resident rights.
In fact, the procedures for applying for company registration in Singapore are not difficult. The focus is on the business nature and personal background of the company, whether it can meet and meet the requirements and regulations of the Singapore Ministry of human resources, and whether it is successful depends on the Singapore Ministry of human resources.
Ten important factors in Singapore's immigration application
1. Age
Singapore is an aging society, so young people are more likely to pass. Young applicants naturally mean that they will have more time to "contribute" to Singapore.
2. Education
Similarly, highly educated talents are also scarce resources. However, this is not the only standard. Xiaobian has heard of the human tragedy of the doctor and his wife applying for PR together and being rejected together.
3. Letter of recommendation
It would be great if you could find an important local person with high moral integrity to write a letter of recommendation for you.
4. Industry
Singapore pays more and more attention to knowledge intensive industries, so R & D personnel or employees in sunrise industries are more likely to pass pr.
5. Position
The higher the position and salary of the applicant, the higher the probability of passing. After all, good horses are easy to find, and strong handles are hard to find. The higher the position of the applicant, the more irreplaceable he or she is, and the more Singapore wants to keep him or her.
6. Resume
ICA reviews a large number of PR applications every year, so it will be helpful if a two page resume is attached to the application form to indicate all the key points.
7. Family relations
Having immediate family members who live in Singapore for a long time is a great plus factor, such as parents or spouses.
8. Residence time
Although you can apply for PR after working in Singapore for half a year, you'd better wait a little. The waiting time varies according to the type of permit held by the applicant: EP is best to wait for 3 years, SP is best to wait for 4 years.
9. Integration into Singapore
Some Singaporean parliamentarians suggested that the application conditions of PR should be more stringent, and Singaporeans and communities can also participate in the approval process in the existing procedures, such as the support of 5 to 10 Singaporeans.
Although this is only a suggestion that has not been implemented, integration into Singapore society is still one of the important factors. If the applicant's mother tongue is not one of the four official languages of Singapore, it is best to learn at least one of them and obtain corresponding certificates.
10. Giving back to society
Volunteers and donations are very positive factors, which indicates that the applicant is willing to contribute to Singapore society outside of work. However, it should be noted that there is no benefit in making a one-time donation or volunteering occasionally, which will make ICA think that you did it to pass the application, which is a routine and not sincere.
