Nursing Jobs in Singapore for Filipino Nurses
Singapore hires Filipino nurses under a government MOU with fast SNB registration, English-speaking wards, and a 3.5-hour flight home — the region’s most convenient serious market, paying SGD 2,800–4,500/mo on a 3–6 month timeline.
Figures above are typical ranges as of 2026 and vary by employer, city and experience — we confirm exact packages per offer.
Why Singapore
No destination balances career and family like Singapore: world-class hospitals, English-speaking wards, and a 3.5-hour flight to Manila — close enough to fly home on a long weekend. A government-to-government MOU keeps recruitment ethical and the SNB registration process fast, making Singapore the most convenient serious market for Filipino nurses.
How licensing works
- Employer offer — Singapore registration is employer-sponsored — a hospital offer comes first, and public and private hospitals both actively recruit Filipino nurses.
- SNB registration — the Singapore Nursing Board registers you to practise; depending on your background this can include a competency assessment period.
- Work pass & start — your employer sponsors the work pass. Medijobs candidates never pay placement, verification or exam fees — employers cover them.

Common questions
How much do Filipino nurses earn in Singapore?
Typically SGD 2,800–4,500 per month depending on seniority and setting, with shift allowances and annual bonuses common on top. We confirm exact packages per offer.
How long does the Singapore pathway take?
Typically 3–6 months from offer to first day — one of the fastest serious destinations, since SNB registration runs alongside your employer’s onboarding.
Do I pay anything to Medijobs?
No. Candidates never pay placement, verification or exam fees — employers cover them. Any agency asking for upfront fees is a red flag under Philippine law.
Why is Singapore so popular with Filipino nurses?
It’s the closest major market to home — about 3.5 hours to Manila — with English-speaking wards, a large Filipino nursing community, and a government MOU that keeps the recruitment process protected and fast.
