How much company incorporation in Singapore costs

The cost to incorporate a company depends on whether you’re local or not. For foreigners, there’s a legal requirement to hire local directors, so the company incorporation costs more. The process of company incorporation for residents is more straightforward.

FAQ

  • What is local incorporation and how does it work?

    After getting approval for your business name and choosing private or public incorporation, follow these steps to incorporate in Singapore: determine key shareholders, set financial year-end, appoint directors and corporate secretary, register an office address, define your constitution, and submit your application to ACRA's BizFile+.

  • What do I need to open a company?

    You need to have a local address that you will use to receive official mail, and a corporate secretary. One of the directors has to be a Singapore resident. So if you don’t plan to be a director yourself, you’ll need someone else. Paid-up capital can be $1.

  • What are the steps?

    We check that the name you’ve chosen for your business is available. We advise you do it straight away when searching on our webpage. To register your local company, we’ll need you to check in via MyInfo or send us an IC or passport copy. We also collect details on directors and shareholders, as well as your registered address. We prepare the Constitution, consent to act as a director and prepare an incorporation application. We send them for you to sign digitally and then submit to ACRA. Once a UEN has been issued, we upload the Bizfile to your account.

  • What is your timeline?

    Once we get all the data from you, we can set up a local business within an hour. It also depends on the service hours of the authorities: they don’t register in the evenings or on weekends.

  • What can I use as a registered address?

    All Singaporean companies must have a local address to use for official mail. If you don’t have an office, use our service. We collect your correspondence, scan and send them to you. You can also use your home address, but that might be subject to official approval.

  • Do I need a Company Secretary?

    A corporate secretary is in charge of compliance reporting: maintaining registers, submitting changes to ACRA, and processing standard filings. Every company in Singapore must appoint one within 6 months after incorporation.

  • Can I become a director?

    Yes, if you are above 18 years old, whether you are a Singapore local or a foreigner. You can have as many directors as you want, or it could be just you.
