Hi,
Local Singaporean got the Certificate and Divorce and can remarry.
If he/she remarry a foreigner who is not WP holder or Ex WP holder is there any thing to take note of or need to seek any permission before getting the spouse over to Singapore to ROM?
Thank you.

If the foreigner is not WP holder or ex-WP holder like you said, she can always come over to Singapore for ROM procedures on SVP but that's all. She won't get LTSVP, PR whatsoever and she's still subjected to application review by ICA like all other foreigners here, married or not married to locals.

I reckon the OP didn't like the answers he got last week so he's started another new thread hoping to get better answers.....

I'd like to hear the proposal... "Darling, will you
remarry me?"

Be careful what you wish for

The fact that he started 4 threads on similar things since March 13 is starting to get on my nerve a little bit.
Dude, you think you can flip our answers if you flip same question in different threads in few days like how you flip a roti prata?

well, this ??
What is the change that has been made to the 15-day criterion for issuance of a marriage licence?
....
For couples where at least one party is not a SC or SPR, the 15-day requirement will continue to apply and at least one of them has to be physically present within Singapore for a minimum of 15 days before the date of notice of marriage.

I expect you can submit an LTVP application, but just because you're married does not mean you will get it granted. I suspect they will be looking closely at whether this is a marriage of convenience.
But hang on, you've already had this explained to you a few times now...

Perhaps I have not been clear in my previous post Mr Leow. Let me try this again.
Marrying her in Singapore = NO GUARANTEE.
Yes she can still come over on SVP and both of you undergo ROM like other couples but that's it. But when her SVP is up, she must leave. That's all.
You can use that ROM inside the application but NO GUARANTEE. It will be treated by ICA just as the same as without ROM for other foreigners.

Lynx, maybe revert to Singlish/Manglish? Normal English doesn't seem to be getting anywhere.....

SMS, I fail to see how can this get any simpler, without having to resort to bastardisation of English language
Just for laughs, perhaps I should exchange
NO GUARANTEE to
BO GERENTI?

I think we have a case of someone who is not asking a question as such, rather simply wishing that their belief and opinion receives group confirmation.
So you can advise 'cannot' as often as you like, the OP has his mind set that he can, and hence he keeps repeating the question over and over in disbelief.
