Hai Friends
I am a physiotherapist from India with 4 yrs of clinical experience. I want to shift my practice to Singapore. Can anyone let me know the procedures involved in doing so (license exam.....)

I am a physio from Hong Kong and going to Singapore for my new job.
There are no formal registration process in Singapore. The most important thing is let your employer know your physio course and post-qualification experience is relating to their job requirement.
Perhaps you plan to join the trade union there. They will "accredit" your basic physio training in order to approve your membership.
Hi,
As far as I know is the membership in the SPA not mandatory if you are not looking for a job in a government institution (except as a lecturer at Nanyang Polytechnics) but work for or want to open a private practice. However the latter will be even more complicated regarding immigration, work permit, etc.
When I enquired last time I got the following reply
SPA Membership <[email protected]> wrote:
"Thank you for your enquiry.
To apply for membership to the Singapore Physiotherapy Association , you need to submit an application form and all the necessary documents stated in the form.
You can download the application form from our website at www.physiotherapy.org.sg . Further details about application procedure can also be found in the website.
Please note that all documents have to be translated into English and certified true copies. You are required to pay S$140 for administration and evaluation fees which are non-refundable.
The SPA Admission Committee will then evaluate your credentials. You will be informed whether you are qualified to sit for an SPA screening examination .
SPA screening exams are conducted in May and November every year.The cost of such exam is S$350.
Should you have any further queries, please contact us again at [email protected]
