Yes, international students can work in Singapore, but there are some restrictions and requirements to be aware of.
International students studying in Singapore are generally allowed to work part-time for up to 16 hours per week during the academic term and full-time during school breaks, subject to the approval of their educational institution and the Ministry of Manpower (MOM).
However, students enrolled in publicly-funded institutions such as polytechnics and universities may be able to work without applying for approval from MOM, but they are still subject to the limit of 16 hours per week during the academic term.
International students who wish to work in Singapore must have a valid Student Pass and a local bank account. They also need to obtain a Letter of Consent (LOC) from MOM before they can start work.
In addition, some jobs may have additional requirements, such as a work permit or relevant qualifications, and may not be available to international students.
It is important to note that violating the work restrictions can lead to consequences such as revocation of Student Pass or even deportation.
