The following claims they can stay 60 days in 90, but they were written 3 & 5 years ago, respectively, so a bit dated, & with no indication if this can be done continually:chyrasg wrote:
Thanks for the comprehensive research. Much appreciated. My other half is a Czech caucasian and speaks fluent English. Hopefully that helps!
I found out from a Malaysian friend who comes here regularly on social stay that ICA had told him that he is allowed to stay in Singapore upto 30 days within a 60 days rolling period. Can anyone confirm this?
Is there some rational basis for this fear? Would immigration have any idea of what type of relationship your partner is in, if he arrives at the airport alone? OTOH, if you go to ICA together after his arrival, might they be suspicious & ask questions? What will you say then? You're looking to try him out for the position of live in maid/security guard?chyrasg wrote: It seems to point towards the theory that one can stay upto 6 months per year as long as he is not from the "high risk" group.
In any case, we'll probably head out to ICA office when he is here to get some clarity around the "rule". Our fear though is that despite what the ICA office tells us, application of the "rule" may still highly subjective and dependent on the mood of the duty immigration officer at the airport.

I have lived and worked in Singapore for almost 12 years and I know of people coming in and out many times with no issues from countries like Thailand and also of people driving into JB and coming back 2 hours later and getting another 30 day extension. On the other hand others being turned around after two visits. In your case I think its a little different.
