Quick answer: Singapore has dozens of PR consultancies, and quality varies widely. Among the established names are The Immigration People, Epica Immigration, Transform Borders, ONE Visa, OCSC Global, E&H Immigration, AIMS, Fragomen and Singapore Top Immigration, alongside First Immigration (the publisher of this guide). Before you pay anyone, remember that ICA says it has no affiliation with any migration agency and does not endorse consultancy services, and that no one can guarantee PR approval. Choose on transparency: a written fee quote, a realistic assessment of your chances, and a licence you can check if the firm also handles work passes.
Disclosure: this guide is published by First Immigration, which appears in the list. We have tried to keep the other entries factual and limited to details that can be checked. Facts were verified on 17 September 2026 from MOM’s Employment Agency Directory, company registration records and each agency’s own website. Google ratings are not included because we could not verify them independently; check them yourself on Google Maps.
What ICA says about PR agencies
Read this before you choose any firm, including us.
- ICA: “ICA has no affiliation with any external migration agency/ commercial entity which claims to be the Singapore immigration specialist/ consultant or partner.”
- ICA: “ICA does not support or endorse services by self-proclaimed professional immigration consultancy service providers for Permanent Residence application.”
- ICA on commercial entities and consultants: applicants who engage them “are advised to exercise caution”, and ICA “shall not be responsible or held accountable in any way for any loss you may suffer.”
You can apply for Singapore PR yourself on ICA e-Service with Singpass. A good consultant saves you time and helps you present a complete, consistent application. A consultant cannot change how ICA assesses you.

“Not listed” means we did not find the firm under that name in MOM’s directory. ICA does not license PR consultants, so this is not a sign of wrongdoing. An EA licence matters mainly if the firm also handles work pass applications.

How much do PR agencies charge?
Fees are rarely published. The figures below come only from agencies that publish them, and they are on top of ICA’s own fees.
| Service | Published examples | Source |
| PR application (single) | S$1,400 to about S$2,500 | Epica Immigration; Transform Borders |
| PR application (family) | S$1,600 | Epica Immigration |
| Citizenship application | S$1,600 to about S$2,500 | Epica Immigration; Transform Borders |
| Employment Pass | About S$1,500 | Transform Borders |
| S Pass | About S$1,200 | Transform Borders |
| Dependant’s Pass or LTVP | About S$800 | Transform Borders |
ICA’s government fees for PR: S$100 to apply, then S$20 for the entry permit, S$50 for a 5-year Re-Entry Permit and S$50 for the identity card if approved.
If a firm will not give you a written quote before you commit, treat that as a warning sign.
Do you actually need an agency?
| You can probably apply yourself if… | An agency may help if… |
| Your documents are straightforward and in English | You have documents in several languages that need translation |
| You have a stable job and a simple family profile | You are self-employed, run a company or have an unusual income history |
| You are comfortable with ICA e-Service | You were rejected before and want an outside review |
| You have time to prepare carefully | You are applying for a whole family and want a single, consistent file |
Whether you use an agency or not, start with how ICA assesses applications. Read what ICA evaluates, our step-by-step PR application guide and the PR document checklist.
Red flags to avoid
In August 2025 the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) obtained court orders against Paul Immigrations, VED Immigrations (trading as Ray Immigrations) and SAVA Immigrations and their operator, for misleading practices. CCCS said these included baseless guarantees of PR approval and false claims that PR rules were changing rapidly to rush customers, with some people paying up to S$10,000.
Watch for:
| Red flag | Why it matters |
| “Guaranteed approval” or “100% success” | ICA decides every case; no agency can guarantee an outcome |
| Pressure to sign now (“only a few slots left”, “rules are changing next month”) | The tactic CCCS highlighted in its 2025 case |
| Claims of special links to ICA | ICA says it has no affiliation with any agency |
| No written fee quote | You cannot compare or dispute charges |
| Names that sound like a government body | Can mislead applicants about who they are dealing with |
| Years of experience that do not match company records | Check the firm’s registration date and ask who will handle your case |
| Asking you to hand over your Singpass | You should submit or authorise the application yourself |
How to check an agency before you pay
- Look up the company on ACRA’s BizFile and compare the registration date with the experience it claims.
- Check MOM’s Employment Agency Directory if the firm will handle any work pass for you.
- Read recent Google reviews, including the negative ones, and look at how the firm responds.
- Ask for a written quote that separates agency fees from ICA fees and lists what happens if you are rejected.
- Ask who will prepare your file and whether you can speak to them before signing.
- Ask how they will assess your chances. A good answer refers to ICA’s factors and your documents, not approval percentages.
Questions to ask in the first consultation
- What category will I apply under, and why?
- Which of ICA’s factors look weak in my profile?
- What documents will you need from me, and who translates them?
- What exactly is included in the fee, and is there any refund or refiling if I am rejected?
- How long will preparation take before submission?
- What happens if ICA asks for more information?
If you have been rejected before, also ask how they will change the application. Our guide on what to do after a PR rejection explains the options, and our article on the Singapore PR approval rate explains why nobody can quote you a reliable success rate.
Why consider First Immigration
- An honest assessment first. We tell you when your profile is not ready yet.
- A file built around ICA’s factors. Family ties, economic contribution, qualifications, age, family profile and length of residency.
- Support beyond PR. Work passes through our Employment Pass service, family passes, and citizenship when you become eligible.
- No guarantees. We will never promise approval, because no one honestly can.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best PR application agency in Singapore?
There is no official ranking, and ICA does not endorse any agency. Compare firms on verifiable facts: company registration date, an MOM licence if they handle work passes, written fees and how honestly they assess your case.
How much does a PR agency cost in Singapore?
Among agencies that publish fees, PR applications cost from about S$1,400 to S$2,500 for a single applicant, on top of ICA’s S$100 application fee and the fees payable if approved.
Can an agency guarantee Singapore PR approval?
No. ICA decides every application. In 2025 CCCS obtained court orders against immigration consultancies that made baseless guarantees of PR approval.
Do I need an agency to apply for Singapore PR?
No. You can apply yourself on ICA e-Service with Singpass. An agency can help with preparation, especially for complex profiles or previous rejections.
Does ICA work with immigration agencies?
No. ICA states it has no affiliation with any external migration agency and does not endorse consultancy services for PR applications.
Do PR consultants need an MOM licence?
ICA does not license PR consultants. An MOM Employment Agency licence is relevant when a firm handles work pass applications. You can check licences in MOM’s Employment Agency Directory.
Which agency is best after a PR rejection?
Choose one that reviews your previous application in detail and explains what will change. Avoid any firm that promises approval on the next attempt.
How do I check if an immigration agency is legitimate?
Check its company registration on ACRA, its licence on MOM’s directory if relevant, recent Google reviews, and whether it gives a written quote and avoids guarantees.
Is a cheaper agency worse?
Not necessarily. Price reflects scope. Ask what is included, such as translations, cover letters, follow-up with ICA and support after a rejection.
