Re-entry Permit
Special Re-entry Permit System
Under the special Re-entry Permit System introduced in 2012, a re-entry permit will NOT be required if you re-enter within 1 year or at the expiry of your visa, whichever is the earlier date.
This special re-entry permit system is a very convenient system as you no longer have to spend time nor money for the application of a re-entry permit.
