Who We’ve Worked With
Foreign Company Registration Options in Singapore
Transfer of Registration (Re-domiciliation)
- Allows eligible foreign companies to shift their home jurisdiction to Singapore.
- The company retains its legal identity and corporate history after the transfer.
- Must meet minimum requirements such as solvency and compliance.
- Suitable for firms seeking to permanently relocate and operate under Singapore law.
Setting up a Representative Office
- Ideal for market research or exploring business opportunities in Singapore.
- Cannot engage in commercial, profit-generating activities.
- No need to register as a legal entity under Singapore law.
- Valid for up to 3 years, after which it must convert to a legal entity if continuing operations.
Incorporating a Subsidiary / Local Company
- Registered as a private limited company under Singapore law.
- Treated as a separate legal entity from the parent company.
- Allows 100% foreign ownership and access to local tax benefits.
- Can conduct full business activities and enter contracts in its own name.
Registering as a Branch of a Foreign Company
- Acts as an extension of the parent company, not a separate legal entity.
- Liabilities extend to the foreign parent company.
- Must appoint at least one local authorised representative.
- Can carry out business activities similar to those of the parent company.
