Post Passport Renewal: Transfer your Re-Entry Permit

This is for the Singapore Permanent Residents (SPRs) who have a new Passport number (either through renewal of Passport, update of Passport, etc). Note that if the SPR leaves Singapore without a valid Re-Entry Permit (REP), the PR status will be cancelled. So better get your documents synced up nice and properly.

Fortunately, all you have to do is the "Transfer of Re-Entry Permit". And, it's fast and (to my big surprise)  doesn't cost a thing.

Here's what you need handy:

• your new passport details (passport number, name, nationality, place of issue, date of issue, date of expiry);
• a good network connection;
• a computer with preferably updated browser and plug-ins;
• access to a printer (optional)

So after you have all of the above ready, you can transfer your re-entry permit now:

1. Go to the Electronic Re-Entry Permit (e-REP) link.
2. Login using your SingPass account.
3. Click on "Transfer or Re-Entry Permit"
4. Transfer of Re-Entry Permit Step 1: Click on "Self" then "Proceed"
5. Transfer of Re-Entry Permit Step 2: Select/Enter all the required (*) information then "Proceed"
6. Transfer of Re-Entry Permit Step 3: Check "I agree to the above." and click "Submit"
7. Transfer of Re-Entry Permit Step 4: Click "Print REP" to either print it or save to file; suggest both, then click "Return to Main Menu" then logout.
