If you hold a Personalised Employment Pass (PEP), find out about the mandatory annual notification and how to notify us of certain changes.
Declaring annual salary
As a PEP holder, you need to declare to MOM your annual salary by 31 January each year.
If your pass was issued on 31 December 2024 or before, you will need to submit your annual notification in 2026. New PEP holders whose passes were issued from 1 January 2025 will only be required to submit their notification in 2027.
If your PEP was issued on:
- 1 May 2024, you need to declare your annual salary for 2025 by 31 January 2026.
- 1 September 2025, you need to declare your annual salary for 2026 by 31 January 2027.
If you are required to declare your annual salary in the upcoming exercise, you will receive our email notification. Please ensure that you submit your annual notification promptly, otherwise your PEP status may be affected.
The Year 2026 PEP annual salary notification exercise has concluded. Our next annual notification exercise will take place from 1 Jan to 31 Jan 2027. You will be notified by email to submit your annual salary notification for the next year by January 2027.
How to calculate you fixed annual salary for the declaration
Fixed annual salary = fixed monthly salary × number of months worked in the calendar year.
You worked with Company A from 1 January 2023 to 30 April 2023, earning a fixed monthly salary of $22,500. You were unemployed for 2 months and started employment with Company B from 1 July 2023 to 31 December 2023, earning a fixed monthly salary of $30,000.
Your fixed annual salary earned is:
| Company |
Fixed monthly salary |
Months worked |
Fixed annual salary |
| A |
$22,500 |
4 |
$22,500 x 4 = $90,000 |
| B |
$30,000 |
6 |
$30,000 x 6 = $180,000 |
Total fixed annual salary earned for Year 2024 = $90,000 + $180,000 = $270,000
If you no longer meet the
