What is a letter of employment used for in Singapore?

Employees use a letter of employment as proof of their job. Banks often ask for one when applying for a loan or credit card, landlords use it for rental applications, and immigration offices may request it for visa applications. It usually confirms the job title, start date, and employment status.

Should a letter of employment include salary?

That is up to the employer and the employee. Many companies only confirm the position and start date. If salary is included, state it clearly and only with the employee's consent, in line with the Personal Data Protection Act.

Does the letter need to be signed and stamped?

Most organisations print the letter on company letterhead and have an authorised signatory sign it. Some banks or embassies may also ask for a company stamp or a contact number so they can verify the letter.
