    FAQ

    To set up a company in Singapore, investors need to meet the following essential conditions and requirements:

    1- Director requirement

    It is mandatory for a company to have a designated Director (Nominee Director) or SPR (Singapore Permanent Resident - residing in Singapore). The Nominee Director does not intervene in the company's business operations but is legally responsible for the company's activities.

    If foreign investors wish to personally carry out the duties of a resident director in Singapore, they may consider residing in Singapore under the EntrePass or Employment Pass program.

    Thus, a Singapore company must have at least 01 managing director who is a local resident: Singapore Citizens, Singapore Permanent Residents (PRs), or individuals holding Entrepass or Employment Pass.

    2- Secretary requirement

    In addition to the designated director, after incorporation, the company also needs to appoint an additional secretary who is a Singaporean citizen. Currently, in Singapore, hiring secretary services is quite common to assist foreign investors in establishing companies in Singapore.

    3- Company address requirement in Singapore

    The office address in Singapore can be a rented address; however, approval from housing management authorities such as the Housing Development Board or Urban Redevelopment Authority is required to register as the company's registered address.

    4- Paid-up capital requirement of the company

    According to regulations in Singapore, the minimum paid-up capital to establish a company is $1, and there is no maximum capital requirement or authorized capital.

    A "Nominee Director" is a financial term used in the business field, referring to a director appointed to represent someone else or a company, such as a bank, investor, or lender, on the board of directors of a company.

    Role of a Nominee Director:

    A private company in Singapore must have at least one local resident director according to Singapore Company Law. The local resident director can be one of the following:
