The minimum salary requirement for an Employment Pass ensures foreign holders earn comparable salaries to local Singaporeans, discouraging employers from hiring foreigners at lower costs.
1. Report and Apply for Replacement
If an Employment Pass card is lost, stolen, or damaged, the company or employment agent must apply for a replacement within one week.
For stolen cards, include a police report (in English) with the application.
2. Notify MOM if Overseas
If the Employment Pass holder is outside Singapore, the company must immediately inform MOM. MOM will issue a letter allowing the holder to re-enter Singapore.
3. Submit Replacement Application
Applications for replacement cards should be completed through MOM.
A non-refundable fee is required at the time of submitting the application.
4. Receive Replacement Card Letter
Once the application is approved, MOM will provide a replacement card letter with instructions for collecting the new card.
5. Collect the New Card
The new card must be collected from the Employment Pass Services Centre within four working days.
No appointment is mandatory, but the following documents are needed:
If the lost card is found, it must be returned to MOM.
Timing: Please cancel within one week if the pass holder leaves employment or if the pass expires.
Pre-Cancellation: Obtain tax clearance from IRAS and arrange airfare for the pass holder’s return.
Cancellation Process: Use MOM to cancel the pass.
Return of Pass: The Employment Pass card must be returned to MOM within one week after cancellation.
