Why Register Your Company in Singapore?

Singapore has earned its reputation as one of the world’s top business destinations — and not just for its efficiency. It’s a place where stability meets opportunity, and where entrepreneurs can grow with confidence in a secure, well-connected environment.

A Global Business Hub with a Pro-Business Environment

Here, setting up a company isn’t a long, frustrating process — it’s quick, clear, and open to everyone. Foreigners can own 100% of their business, and the government actively supports entrepreneurship through simple regulations and strong legal protections.

Low Corporate Tax Rates and Incentives for Startups

Taxes stay low, capped at 17%, and new companies enjoy significant breaks for their first few years. Startups in innovation-driven sectors like tech or finance often qualify for extra support, giving them a real advantage in those early growth stages.

Access to a Skilled Workforce and Global Markets

Positioned right between Asia and the rest of the world, Singapore offers unmatched access to global markets. English is the language of business, and its workforce is among the most skilled and adaptable anywhere. Add in trusted institutions like ACRA and one of the world’s strongest banking systems, and you’ve got everything you need to build something lasting.

Pre-Incorporation Checklist: What You Need to Get Started

Before incorporating, it’s helpful to understand the basic requirements. Singapore’s rules are clear, but getting the details right saves time later.

Company Structure: Choosing Between Pte Ltd, LLP, and Sole Proprietorship

Most foreigners choose a Private Limited Company (Pte. Ltd.), as it offers a separate legal identity, limited liability, and access to tax benefits.

Structure	Legal Status	Ideal For	Liability
Private Limited (Pte. Ltd.)	Separate legal entity	Foreign entrepreneurs, startups	Limited to share capital
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)	Shared entity between partners	Professionals or service firms	Limited to partner contribution
Sole Proprietorship	Not a separate entity	Local freelancers	Unlimited personal liability

Company Name & Registered Address

Your company name must be unique and approved by ACRA before registration. Offensive or restricted words (like “bank” or “finance”) may need special approval. You’ll also need a local registered office address; Offshore Pro Group can provide this as part of your incorporation package.

Directors & Shareholders (The Local Director Requirement)

Every Singapore company must have at least one local director — a citizen, permanent resident, or Employment Pass holder. If you don’t have a local partner, Offshore Pro Group can arrange a nominee director service, ensuring full compliance with Singapore’s regulatory framework.

Paid-up Capital & Corporate Secretary

The minimum paid-up capital is just SGD 1, but you can increase it anytime. You’ll also need a corporate secretary within six months of incorporation — this person ensures compliance and handles key filings. We can appoint a qualified secretary as part of your setup package.

Post-Incorporation: Staying Compliant in Singapore

Once your company is incorporated, maintaining compliance keeps your business running smoothly and avoids penalties.

Opening Your Corporate Bank Account

Singapore has one of the world’s strongest banking systems. Offshore Pro Group partners with top local and international banks to help you open your corporate account, often remotely. We guide you through KYC, documentation, and onboarding with minimal hassle.

Applying for an Employment Pass (EP)

If you’re planning to run your business from Singapore, getting an Employment Pass is an essential step. This work visa lets foreign company owners and directors live and operate in the country legally. We help you handle everything — from gathering the right paperwork to submitting your application to the Ministry of Manpower — and make sure the relocation process goes as smoothly as possible.

Annual Filing Requirements with ACRA & IRAS

Every Singapore company must file annual returns with ACRA and tax filings with IRAS. Offshore Pro Group offers ongoing accounting and corporate compliance services so you can focus on running your business while we handle the deadlines and paperwork.
