Employment Pass (EP) Renewal in Singapore
Document Checklist
Personal-particulars page of the candidate's passport
Where to get: The candidate's own passport — scan or photograph the bio-data page
Required: Clear PDF or image upload
Make sure the passport itself remains valid well past the renewed pass duration. MOM may shorten the renewed pass if the passport is close to expiry.
ACRA Business Profile / Instant Information
Latest company business profile
Where to get: Purchase from the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) via BizFile+
Required: Recent extract — older copies risk rejection if firm details have changed
The employer's HR or Employment Agent typically pulls this. It feeds COMPASS firm-profile scoring.
Verification proof for the candidate's qualifications (if applicable)
Where to get: A background-screening company that has an MOM reference number, the awarding institution's online portal, OpenCerts (.opencerts file), or a letter from the relevant professional body
Required: Not required if the qualification was already verified during a previous EP application
MOM will not accept the certificate itself, notary documents, self-translated screenshots, or unverifiable sources as the verification proof.
Up-to-date company turnover information for the past 3 years
Where to get: Maintained by the employer in the myMOM Portal — needs to be current at the time of renewal
Required: Stale figures depress the COMPASS firm-profile score
Profession-specific supporting documents (where applicable)
Where to get: Healthcare roles: registration with the Singapore Medical Council or equivalent. Legal roles: Legal Services Regulatory Authority. Football roles: the respective body. Roles in food establishments: the SFA foodshop licence QR-code page
Required: Only when the role falls within a regulated profession
