Employment Pass (EP) and S Pass holders can consider a switch to Work Permit if they no longer meet the prevailing criteria. However, employers must ensure that:
There is no need for the existing pass to be cancelled before applying for a Work Permit. When the application is approved, ensure that the EP or S Pass is cancelled before getting the Work Permit issued.
Work Permit holders' family members are not eligible for Dependant's Passes. Those with dependants should make the necessary arrangements before switching to a Work Permit.
