How To Register A Company In Singapore
steps to register a company in Singapore
Step 1: Select Company Name and Type
Choose a unique name and verify its availability with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA). The name must not be identical to existing businesses or contain sensitive terms.
Step 2: Appoint Key Roles
You must appoint at least one local resident director and at least one shareholder. You also need to appoint a qualified local Company Secretary within 6 months of incorporation.
Step 3: Submit Application to ACRA
Prepare the company's Constitution and submit the formal incorporation application via the BizFile+ portal. Once approved, ACRA issues a Unique Entity Number (UEN).
A local registered office address (commercial or residential) is mandatory at this stage.
Step 4: Open a Corporate Bank Account
With your UEN and Business Profile, you can open a corporate account with major local banks (DBS, OCBC, UOB) or digital alternatives (Aspire, Wise, Payoneer) to start operations.
