Employment of Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) and LTVP+ Holders with Letter of Consent

Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Manpower (a) whether holders of Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP)/LTVP+ with Letter of Consent (LOC) and who are family members of Singaporeans are subjected to dependency ratio ceilings in companies that employ them; and (b) if not, whether the Ministry plans to undertake an active education campaign to raise awareness of this fact among employers to make it easier for LTVP/LTVP+ holders with LOC to gain employment.

Dr Tan See Leng: Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP)/LTVP+ holders with a Letter of Consent are not subject to foreign worker quotas. This information is publicly available on the Ministry of Manpower's website and is easily accessible to employers.
