Santa Fe Analysis:
The last administrative fees adjustment was in April 2013. The increase could mean higher costs for some employers and affected foreign nationals. They should budget for the revised fees or consider filing in advance before the changes in the fees, if possible.
Please note that other than the changes in the administrative fees, the current charge of S$30 for a Multiple Journey Visa will be incurred at the issuance stage, if applicable.
