I’m here in Singapore almost a year. Recently, I was studying about Singapore. Singapore is a popular destination from across the globe and is a great exciting country. There are many types of passes or permits, are issued by the immigration and checkpoint authority (ICA). If you plan to travel often in and out of Singapore you should apply for IACS. Eligibility for Singapore Citizens, Student Pass holders, Employment Pass holders, Work Permit Holders, Singapore Permanent Residents, Long Term Visit Pass holders and Dependant Pass holders. As I said, there are many types of passes or permit such as Entry Visa, Long Term Visit Pass, Student Pass, Permanent Resident (PR), Citizen, Employment Pass (EP), Personalized Employment Pass (PEP), S Pass, Work Permit, Dependant’s Pass, Employment Pass Eligibility Certificate (EPEC), Entre Pass, Long Term, Miscellaneous Work Pass and Training Work Permit. Who wants to be a millionaire? As you started your life in Singapore, take a good look around because you might bump into one of 174,000 of them who live here. According to a new investment bank wealth report, if you stick around the city-state for the next four years, there will be 235,000 millionaires among us. As a pet lover. Be prepared for some paper work and 10 to 30 days in quarantine at Sembawang Animal Quarantine Station (SAQS) at 10 Lorong Chencharu, Sembawang. Complete the paper work and apply for an import license within 30 days of your pet’s arrival. Furry friends required quarantine will need a reservation (as if you were going to a hotel, minus the minibar :P ) . Taxis. Good News – There are taxis everywhere, like in most major cities. Bad News – They don’t always know where the place you want to go is, so do some research before you get in the taxi. Paying Your Bills. If you will not be setting up GIROs to automatically pay your bills from your bank account and you will not be paying them online directly with the vendor, payment for services is provided by AXS machines located throughout the island. For a list of locations go to axs.sg There are some Volunteering Opportunities.
