Bureau of Immigration(BI)

Dear Sir / Ma'am,

I would like to request the immigration requirements to travel for an OFW spouse, Filipina, from Philippines to Singapore. This will be the first time that my wife will travel as a spouse of OFW. She will stay with me here in Singapore which will be sponsored by the company.

We understand that there are restrictions during this pandemic period. Singapore allow OFW and their spouses to enter the country during this period.

Many thanks,
Bubong NM
