Singapore has announced significant increases to the minimum qualifying salaries for Employment Pass (EP) and S Pass holders, effective from January 2027. The updates were revealed by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong during his Budget 2026 speech.
Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has introduced major revisions to the S Pass Singapore system, which will take effect on September 1, 2025. These updates are designed to ensure that salaries for S Pass holders match the earnings of the top 33% of local Associate Professionals and Technicians (APT), helping foreign talent support—rather than compete with—Singapore’s domestic labor force while filling critical skill gaps.
