Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can foreigners own 100% of a Singapore company?

Yes! Singapore allows 100% foreign ownership for most business types. There's no requirement for a local partner or joint venture. You can own all shares in your Private Limited Company.

However, you will need at least one locally resident director (Singapore citizen, PR, or Employment Pass holder). If you don't have one, you can appoint a nominee director service.

Do I need to be in Singapore to register a company?

No, you can incorporate a Singapore company remotely from anywhere in the world. The entire registration process can be done online.

However, if you plan to work in Singapore, you'll need to apply for a work pass (Employment Pass or EntrePass) after incorporation. You may need to visit Singapore for certain bank account applications.

What are the ongoing compliance requirements?
  • Annual General Meeting (AGM) within 6 months of financial year-end
  • Annual Return filing with ACRA within 7 months
  • Corporate tax filing with IRAS
  • Maintain proper accounting records
  • Appoint a company secretary within 6 months of incorporation

Our compliance packages handle all of these requirements so you can focus on growing your business.

Are foreigners eligible for Singapore government grants?

Most Enterprise Singapore grants require the company to be at least 30% locally owned by Singapore citizens or PRs. However, there are exceptions:

  • Startup SG Founder: Open to first-time entrepreneurs with innovative ideas
  • SME Working Capital Loans: Available to foreign-owned SMEs meeting criteria
  • Bank financing: Foreign-owned companies can access commercial loans
