Base level costs for this would be $10k or so in admin fees, plus paying myself SG$7000 in local salary on an ongoing basis. I can do this, I think.
(Note — just started looking into this, so I may be off, but I'm optimistic.)
OK, in the light of the additional information. As I said, only employer can apply for EP and employer needs to be Singapore registered company. You can't register company and then employ yourself there - this does not work. Instead you need to have EntryPass which is entrepreneur type work visa. However EntryPass comes with much more requirements.
My suggestion - read thoroughly MoM website and it probably worth to pay for 1h consultation to someone who specializes in local labor/employment law.
