Visa Details for Interns
For most interns on paid internships lasting more than 2 months, you will need to apply for a TVP or Training visit pass.
Working Holiday Pass
The working holiday pass was introduced last year with the feedback from various industry players.
The Work Holiday Programme (WHP) in Singapore is the most easiest visa to apply!
Introduced by the Ministry of Manpower in Singapore, the Work Holiday Programme offers a positive and rewarding experience to foreign university students and recent graduates keen to experience Singapore’s reputation as a talent capital first hand!
You need to be between 18 and 29 years old and
a student or a recent graduate from a recognized university in Australia, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, the UK or the US to apply.
