Visitor on short visit pass
Can anyone please correct me if wrong but I believe that my fiancee can visit me in Singapore where she will get a 30 day entrance pass. We can then apply for this to be extended to 90 days. Assuming she gets this, when her time is up she can visit Malaysia where I am from and stay with my family for a week and then return to Singapore where we can repeat this process till the end of this year when we plan to get married. Am I right?
Re: Visitor on short visit pass
As an EU national she might get an an SVP on arrival of typically 30 or 90 days. This is at immigration's discretion. At the airports, latterly as a non-resident EU national, I routinely get 90 days these days, at land borders they seem to give me 30.balaratnam wrote:Can anyone please correct me if wrong but I believe that my fiancee can visit me in Singapore where she will get a 30 day entrance pass.

As I understand it you can apply to e-extend the SVP only once, and then you're done and must leave.
I would suggest that there is:-
a) No way anyone can border hop in order to stay a year. I mean think about it, visitors stay for an average of 3 days, not a year.
b) That this is no basis for someone looking to start a new life in Singapore (by thinking you can pull the wool over the eyes of the authorities as to your true status and intentions - because you won't).
You need to go the 'common-law' route as previously mentioned. Anything else and you end up risking seriously shooting yourself in the foot, i.e. both of you being thrown out of the country!
