As one of the world’s most modern cities, Singapore’s incredibly developed digital infrastructure has made it a top pick for companies looking for a place to call home.
Stellar digital processes allow potential business owners like yourself to register a company in Singapore online.
You heard that right! No more heading down to government offices with piles of paperwork. Registering a company in Singapore online is fuss-free, and usually only takes a few minutes.
How can I register my company in Singapore online?
To make sure that your online registration process goes smoothly, you’ll have to make sure that you’ve prepared certain documents. Peep our guide on how to incorporate a company in Singapore to see if you’re ready.
To incorporate your company online in Singapore, you’ll have to head to the BizFile+ website. This is a web portal run by the Accounting & Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) of Singapore.
For the online application, you’ll need:
- A SingPass login
- Business activity information
- Registered Business Address
- Details of business owners
- Approval from authorities (if required)
A SingPass login is required for any access into the BizFile+ portal. However, SingPass is only available for Singapore residents. If you’re a foreign company looking to access BizFile+, you’ll need to work with an incorporation service that can help you access the site.
Depending on what type of business you’re registering, you might also require certain licenses before your company can be operational. For example: Food services business owners have to register for a food license. This can be done through the GoBusiness online portal. Once you’ve successfully registered your company, you’ll be prompted to create a CorpPass account.
Similar to SingPass, CorpPass grants you access into BizFile+. This is essential for companies who use BizFile+ to make transactions and file accounts. However, CorpPass can only be granted to Singapore Citizens, Permanent Residents, and selected work pass holders.
