Applicants for welder work permits must hold at least 2 years of relevant experience plus a valid 6G welding certification issued before the application date. The Ministry of Manpower verifies this through the work permit application system effective 2026, rejecting any submission without proof of certification from approved training centres. No exceptions are granted for entry-level candidates.

Employers must submit the applicant's passport, 6G welding certificate, employment contract showing SGD 2,800 minimum salary, and medical report dated within 3 months via the MOM work permit portal. The Ministry of Manpower processes complete applications within 7 working days as of 2026, with incomplete submissions returned immediately. All documents require English translation if originally in another language.
