hi guys
for those who are currently in Singapore and are going to be required to submit a Singapore Certificate of Clearance (COC), it is best to apply for it as soon as you received your PCC request.
Processing time of SG COC;
for Singapore citizen = 10 working days (~2weeks)
for Singapore
PR/foreigner = 15 working days (
~3weeks)
and if you have chosen a Visa Office other than Singapore, remember to allow courier time for sending it to your respective VO.
Some other reminders:
- Applicants residing in Singapore are to appear in person at the COC Office located at Blk D
Police Cantonment Complex, #02-07/08, 391 New Bridge Road, Singapore 088762. The
office is open from 8.30am to 12.00nn, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).
- Be there early. The whole process can be done in 45mins to 1hour. You will have to queue against more people if you arrived later.
- Prepare photo copies of your passport data page and NRIC (front & back)
- Come to the office with your forms already filled-up. According to your citizenship, you have to print, fill-up/prepare at the most 3 forms from the MR email sent by your VO namely;
