What the release reports
Two workers entered Singapore in February 2020 despite rejected entry applications, after employers had been informed before travel.
Details and conditions
MOM revoked their passes, ordered repatriation within twenty-four hours and imposed permanent employment bans. Employers lost pass privileges for a year.
Context and follow-up
The rule then concerned recent mainland-China travel during COVID controls. The archived report records that a valid work pass did not replace the separate temporary entry approval; it should not be read as today’s travel regime.
