[Sent by MOM - 8 May]

Clarification on inaccurate post on messaging apps on work pass holders not allowed into Singapore from 11 May

Here are the facts:

Singapore is not closing borders to work pass holders and dependants, but reducing entries from higher risk countries. Some workers who had earlier obtained entry approvals will be rescheduled.

Workers needed for key strategic and infrastructural works will still be allowed entry.

Workers from lower risk countries/regions, or entering via the Periodic Commuting Arrangement (PCA), Reciprocal Green Lane (RGL) and other approved travel lanes will not be affected.

To reschedule those affected, we are not accepting new entry applications from higher risk countries/regions for the time being.

Please refer to MOM’s press release for more details: https://go.gov.sg/mom-clarification080521
