Leaving SG Before getting Notification letter (E Pass)

[danny88]

Hi I entered Singapore with the White Disembarkation card in which I've sent(scanned copy) to my employer for processing the notification letter which I will only receive next week.

My question is, can I leave Singapore while surrendering the current disembarkation card and return to Singapore with a different White card when the notification letter is ready ?

You cannot leave without the embarkation card.

You cannot leave without the embarkation card.

oh I've made a mistake in typing the question.
The embarkation card is still with me.
What I sent to my company is the Scanned Copy to submit on EP Online.

What I would like to know is will this cause any complication if I leave Singapore before getting the notification letter.

It shouldn't. But, personally? I always try to err on the side of caution.

ok thanks for your reply

and in this current tightened climate, better stay put till you get the notification .. though for EP there is no such restriction on movement while Pass is being processed

Is it still pending as of today? When will you be leaving? My boyfriends EP was approved in principle but then we decided to go to Malaysia last minute for a weekend. All he had to do was bring the IPA (his white card had already been taken by MOM), and it was fine.

I wouldn't advise trying to leave halfway through the application, I heard of someone who was quizzed heavily and it caused lots of problems. Just stay put, lots of time for traveling once you're working here
