Hi,
Hope you can help me clarify please..
As an existing work permit holder, am I allowed to go to Johor Bahru and spend overnight ?
- I have my partner working at JB Malaysia. Every week I come to visit her and spend overnight at her place. I usually go there during my off day and go back to Singapore the following day. At some very rare cases, I come there twice a week when there is an emergency or urgent matter to attend to. Coming from an hour away ride, I just take bus whenever I go to JB.
2. Is there any chance that my work permit can be cancelled by my employer because of my regular visit to JB?
A month ago, I had random discussions with our HR about this scenario.Until yesterday, I was asked again to come to our HR's office about this matter. I showed them the reply I got from your office regarding my previous inquiry. But, I was asked to present a formal letter from MOM stating that a work permit holder can go in and out of Singapore and spend overnight. Only then that our HR will allow me to go to JB and spend overnight there.
