What to Check
| Item | Check or action |

Official Document Scope
MOM’s standard Singapore EP checklist includes the passport particulars page, the latest ACRA business profile and applicable qualification verification. Additional records can be requested during assessment, including evidence that the declared salary will be paid.
Practical Preparation
A concise account of products or services, customers, business activity and the proposed role can help the company organise its evidence. Label forecasts as forecasts and distinguish them from completed transactions.
Avoid Overstating the Requirement
A business plan should not be described as a universal mandatory Singapore EP document solely because it is useful for preparation. Follow the application checklist and any case-specific request from MOM.
