Obtaining Singapore citizenship grants you the ability to live and work in Singapore with minimal restrictions. Citizens benefit from extensive flexibility and access to subsidies in areas such as housing, education, healthcare, and other government services.
To be eligible for Singapore citizenship, you must have held Singapore Permanent Resident (PR) status for at least two years and be at least 21 years old. For more details on eligibility, please consult the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) website.
A Singapore passport is highly respected internationally, offering visa-free travel to over 190 countries, which is advantageous for frequent business travelers.
Please be aware that Singapore does not permit dual citizenship; therefore, you will need to renounce any other nationality upon becoming a Singapore citizen.
When considering applications for PR and citizenship, authorities evaluate the applicant’s potential contributions to and integration within Singapore, as well as their commitment to establishing long-term roots in the country.
Additionally, under Singapore’s Enlistment Act, all male Singapore citizens and permanent residents, unless exempt, are required to complete National Service.
