You mix apples and oranges with respect to residency and employment, then think you have come up with something magical and new.
The bottom line is this: If you're in the country as a visitor, nobody gives a shit if you're working remotely for a temporary period of time. You don't have residency. If you work long enough without residency, your supposed to pay non resident tax. But, if you "visit" too long, you ( you seem to have missed out completing this sentnce!)
I never said you need a work permit to work for a foreign employer. In fact, I've said just the opposite.
I did say that if you have residency, you need to file taxes in Singapore even when working for a foreign company. I did say that you file as a sole proprietor.
I did say that if the foreign company you are working for has a Singapore entity, then you must have a work permit for that Singapore entity. Now, some say that it doesn't matter to you if there is a Singapore entity, and I would challenge that. Ask Dell how many people that they have working in Singapore for Dell Round Rock. My guess would be zero. That's if your resident, that is. If you're in visiting, there are flocks of people at Dell from elsewhere at Dell doing work. For a short duration. On a visitors pass.
You need to be clear. You're not some offshore oil guy, in and out of Singapore and a half dozen other countries, making residency unclear. You're a visitor, working. Half of the subcontinent would be over here if there weren't restrictions on employment without residency.
So, it appears to me that you have gotten your panties in a wad because you didn't understand what I said. Oh, well.

My current job is actually global and the people reporting to me are scattered around the globe (none in Singapore). My job can be done from anywhere in the world, and if I were to move outside Singapore, the job would move with me. In this case, it sounds like an EP is not even necessary for this job, I could be on a LTVP under my wife and continue working without even getting a LOC?

Myasis Dragon,
Now I have got WRITTEN confirmation from MOM that as a foreigner working remotely from Singapore for a foreign employer, on the foreign employer's payroll, for foreign employer's clients I do not, REPEAT DO NOT need a Work Permit or even an exemption from a Work Permit. They said all I need to make sure is that I have a social visit pass issued or extended for my stay in Singapore by ICA

And then to have you jump in with a football hooligan's language just goes to prove how uncivilised and uncultured you are. Have a Merry Christmas
Generally speaking, once you spend 6 months in Indonesia, you will become a tax resident and subject to Indo tax on your worldwide.skapo_80 wrote: ↑Sun, 22 Jan 2023 12:45 amI've seen some countries offering "digital nomad visas", which are meant for digital workers/WFH types. I believe Bali is offering this. In the case of a Singapore EP holder who spends 11 months of the year in Bali, would this mean they are only liable for the 15% flat tax in Singapore, while living most of their time in Bali?
