How we research & update

Honest about our process: automated research from primary sources, automated checks before publishing, and corrections when readers flag them.

Last reviewed: October 2026

Where our information comes from

We pull rules, thresholds, fees and dates from primary sources — the Ministry of Manpower (MOM), the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA), IRAS, the CPF Board, LTA, IMDA and SingStat. Each page shows its sources and the date the information was valid, because pass criteria, rates and fees change.

How pages are produced

Our content is produced by an automated research-and-writing pipeline and reviewed by automated checks (source presence, figure formatting, internal-link validity, length limits) before publishing. We are telling you this plainly: a human does not hand-review every single page. We do not publish a figure or rule that is not tied to a cited official source.

How often we update

Pass, visa and tax pages are reviewed when the underlying rule changes — for example after an MOM announcement or the Singapore Budget — and cost and rental pages at least quarterly. The "Updated" date on each page reflects its last change.
