For U Turn- such a action by ICA happens when a person who is entitled to arrival visa (such as yourself, for example), who abuse the system or seem to do so, by repeatedly entering Singapore for no reasons .. and then doing visa runs.tusootu wrote:Hi all!
I'm an Australian citizen here in Singapore on a Work Holiday Pass, which is valid for a period of 6 months.
My question is - am I allowed to go on short trips (1-2days) to neighbouring countries, eg Malaysia, Thailand, while on the WHP? I ask because I read somewhere once that someone had difficulty re-entering Singapore because of some immigration policy called the "U-turn" or something like that..
I've tried looking up the MOM website, but couldn't find anything.
Any help?
Thank you!
Thanks, I'd really appreciate it if you could ask your friend. I don't want to run into any difficulties is all.ecureilx wrote:For U Turn- such a action by ICA happens when a person who is entitled to arrival visa (such as yourself, for example), who abuse the system or seem to do so, by repeatedly entering Singapore for no reasons .. and then doing visa runs.tusootu wrote:Hi all!

In your case, since you are on a pass, such doesn't happen .. Fret not.
I can check for you tomorrow, in any case, as a colleague from Australia is here on a similar pass.

Thanks so much! I assume I automatically have a Multiple Journey Visa when my WHP was approved...ecureilx wrote:I asked her and she said she got a Multiple Journey Visa stamped - which is the same as any residency / work pass allowing you to depart and return any number of times - as SMS too said.
Again, Fret not
I assume this card is my WHP card and the multiple journey is electronically stored on it. Sigh... my company picked up the card for me, so I dont know whether they got me MJ or SJ.sundaymorningstaple wrote:In fact, it will be written into your Visa card (it will be a green plastic'ish card with all the data imprinted in it). Something like Multiple Journeys permitted or something similar.
