Mom of a 2 yr 5 m old girl

Q. My daughter is 29months now, have given her MMR 1st dose in 9months and MMR 2nd dose in 15months. We are moving to Singapore and according to them the 1st dose should be in 1yr and 2nd dose in 28days after the 1st dose so according to them our 1st dose which is in 9months is invalid and therefore they have asked us to take the 2nd dose now as they would consider the 15months MMR as the 1st dose. Wanted to check if it's safe and harmless enough to take anthr dose well before the time as according to Indian guidelines the next dose is in 4yrs. Please suggest what can be suggested the best in this situation.
