The verification challenge in Singapore

Singapore is a global hiring hub. Employers regularly onboard professionals from across Asia, making cross-border employment verification critical. Traditional background check agencies operating in Singapore take 3 to 4 weeks per candidate and charge Rs 5,000 to Rs 20,000 per check. For companies hiring at scale in this market, that cost and delay creates real competitive disadvantage.

Beyond cost and speed, the quality of verification matters. Phone-based reference checks fail 30% of the time in fast-moving job markets where HR teams change frequently. AscentPassport solves this with a platform where candidates carry their verified employment history with them.

Local compliance requirements

MOM work pass verification, PDPA compliance, and MAS requirements for financial roles. AscentPassport supports all relevant identity documents for Singapore:
