What is CECA?

CECA is a comprehensive agreement with India to encourage bilateral cooperation and economic integration between our countries. Signed on 29 Jun 2005, it was the first comprehensive economic pact signed between Singapore and a South Asian country.

It allows for the movement of four types of business people between Singapore and India:

Professionals who are employed in 127 specific occupations are allowed entry and can stay for up to a year;
Intra-corporate transferees will be permitted entry and can work for up to 2 years. This can be extended to a total term of not more than 8 years;
Business visitors who hold five-year multiple journey visas will be permitted entry for business purposes for up to 2 months, with an option to extend by an additional month; and
Short-term service suppliers will be allowed entry to service their contracts for an initial period of 90 days.

Existing regulations on citizenship, residence and employment will still apply. - See more at: https://www.gov.sg/factually/content....IOGmFKL7.dpuf
