Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on Regulating Foreign-Registered Vehicles Used by Work Pass Holders
23 Sep 2025In Parliament
Mr Victor Lye asked the Acting Minister for Transport
a. how does the Ministry intend to regulate foreign vehicles used by workers holding valid work passes for commuting to Singapore and which are also used for commercial purposes while in Singapore.
Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:
1. All foreign vehicles entering Singapore, including those used by work pass holders commuting to work, are required to have a valid Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) and pay the applicable daily VEP fee.
2. Foreign workers employed as deliverymen with valid work passes may use their personal foreign-registered or Singapore-registered motorcycles for their employer’s trade. However, they are not permitted to engage in platform work using these vehicles.
3. Foreign-registered goods vehicles are not allowed to be used for delivery services within Singapore. This restriction is in place to ensure fair competition and uphold safety and regulatory standards for commercial transport activities.
