After conviction he continued working in singapore for 8 months and left to malaysia for another job.now he wants to come back to singapore on employment pass.

He can try for a security clearance at police but not sure if they will include past cases.

Even if police gives a clean bill of health, still, failing to declare past conviction while applying for pass will ensure the person gets charged for lying ...




P.S. what's with so many law breakers in Singapore suddenly ? :o

You can search this forum on the steps, but I recall a trip to cantonment is in order, no online request.

SPF has a disclaimer that they have no obligation to provide one, and if they say NO, NO it is ..

And I doubt they will accept the request from anybody other than personally requested by the person who needs it

NRIC/FIN : xxxxxxxxx

With effect from 17 October 2005, the Registration of Criminals Act allows the record of a minor conviction kept in the Register of Criminals to be rendered spent if the person has met the specified criteria.

This amendment however does not apply to you as you may either do not have any criminal record or your criminal record is not eligible to be marked as rendered spent.

This notice is valid as of 18 Jul 2015 .

But that doesn't mean you don't have to declare in the pass application.

Singapore has long memory when it comes to crimes and nothing is forgotten

Upto you anyway
