As we know, although the capital requirement of Singapore investment immigration is pretty high, but it is still very attractive to immigrants, comparing its investment immigration policies to that of Australia, Canada and America, it has its own unique advantages.

For Singapore immigrants, there is no requirement on the age or educational background; you don’t even have to explain the resources of the capital. You can get your Singaporean citizenship after 4-6 months, it is one of the fastest one among all countries. At the same time, no “immigration prison” or closing your businesses in mainland, China; More than 78% of the population are Chinese and Chinese is spoken in most of the places. What is important most is that the taxation policy is favorable in Singapore, with an agreement on guarantee investment was signed with China, now the overseas capital tax is exempted. In order to attract more rich people to immigrate to Singapore, the government has further announced a policy to exempt the will tax in February.
