To immigrate to Singapore with your family, you must first hold an eligible work visa such as an Employment Pass (EP), S Pass, or ONE Pass. Your family can then apply for a Dependant’s Pass (DP) or Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP), depending on their relationship to you. You’ll need to meet the minimum salary requirement and submit the application through the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) with supporting documents.
