PART 8 – DECLARATION BY FOREIGN EMPLOYEE

I confirm that the information as set out in this application for Employment Pass is to the best of my knowledge, true and correct.

All documents submitted in support of this application for Employment Pass are true copies of the originals. I understand that I

may be prosecuted if I have provided any information, which is false in any material particular or is misleading by reason of the

omission of any material particular.

I declare that I have not suffered and am not suffering from AIDS or infected with HIV or tuberculosis. I acknowledge that during

the period of validity of my Employment Pass, if I am found to be suffering from AIDS or infected with HIV or Tuberculosis, the

Employment Pass issued to me will be cancelled and I will have to leave Singapore by the date specified by the Controller of

Immigration.

I have read and understood the Conditions of Employment Pass, as specified in the Employment of Foreign Manpower (Work

Passes) Regulations, which are available on the MOM website. I shall ensure that these conditions will be complied with.

Further and in addition, I hereby declare that: –

1. I shall not make any false statement or submit any document which I know to be false in order to obtain an Employment Pass

and Visit Pass.

2. I understand that if I breach any condition above, my Employment Pass and Visit Pass will be revoked and I can be

prosecuted in Court, or expelled and prohibited from entering Singapore.

3. I shall not misuse controlled drugs or take part in any political or other activities during my stay in Singapore, which would

make me an undesirable or prohibited immigrant under the Immigration Act.

With reference to this application submitted for Employment Pass and residence in Singapore, I give my consent to the

Government of Singapore to obtain from and verify information with any person, organisation or any other source for assessing

my application.

I hereby give my consent for the Comptroller of Income Tax to verify my income stated in my current and renewal applications,

based on my assessment record for the current Year of Assessment, for the Controller of Work Passes. In the event my

assessment record for the current Year of Assessment is not available or finalised at the point of verification, I understand the

Comptroller of Income Tax will verify my income against my assessment record for the two previous Years of Assessment. I also

hereby give my consent for the Comptroller of Income Tax to thereafter communicate the results of the verification to the Controller

of Work Passes.

I consent for the Government of Singapore and its statutory authorities to display my information on the Ministry of Manpower's

work pass systems, and to disclose such information to any relevant person or organisation for the administration of matters

relating to work pass and passes for dependants.

I consent to the Ministry of Manpower displaying my pass details when my card is scanned using the Ministry of Manpower's work

pass mobile application.

I understand that a SingPass will help me to access Government e-services in Singapore and I give my consent to the Ministry

of Manpower to share my personal details with the SingPass issuing agency. This allows me to apply for a SingPass account at

a later time if I am eligible for a SingPass.
