Hi all,
I will be heading out to Singapore later in 2013 on a permanent basis, however before the end of the financial year I need to pay a visit in order to sort out a few problems in our local branch.
I am a UK passport holder, so as far as I'm aware I can enter the country for up to 4 weeks visa/permit free, although I will be planning on staying approx 6 weeks. In this time I will be sorting stuff out in the local office, however I will still be getting paid by the UK and into my UK bank account.
Can I simply exit the country before my 30 days are up, for example a short day trip into Malaysia, and then return to Singapore for the remaining two weeks? Will this be frowned upon/look "dodgy" when it comes for me to apply for my employment pass?
If I book my return flight to the UK 6 weeks from the date I enter Singapore, again, will this get questioned?
I appreciate any help with this, as I seem to be going round in circles from the info I'm reading.
