Procedure of Singapore company registration is fully computerized by the Singapore Registrar of Companies. As a result, the Singapore incorporation process is quick and efficient without any bureaucratic red-tape involved. Under normal circumstances, the company can be incorporated in 1-2 days.

 

There are two distinct steps involved in the Singapore company setup procedure: a) Company Name Approval and; b) Company Registration. Both steps can be accomplished on the same day assuming there are no delays caused by Company Registrar.

 

Step 1: Name Reservation

To set up a Singapore company, the proposed name for the company must be approved first. Company name approval is obtained by filing the application with the Company Registrar. The service firm you have chosen to register your company will do it for you as the first step in the incorporation process.

 

Generally the name approval/rejection notification comes through in less than an hour unless the proposed name has some certain words (such as bank, finance, law, media, etc.) that might require the review and approval of a corresponding external government authority. If the name is referred to an external authority, the name approval may get delayed by few days or weeks.

 

To improve your chances of quick name approval, make sure the name:

-is not identical or too similar to any existing local company names

-does not infringe with any trademarks

-is not obscene or vulgar

-is not already reserved

 

An approved name will be reserved for 60 days from the date of application. You can extend the name for another 60 days by filing an extension request just before the expiry date.

 

Step 2: Register Company

Once the name has been approved, the filing of the incorporation request as well as the approval from the Registrar of Companies can be completed in a few hours assuming incorporation documents are ready and have been signed by the directors and shareholders of the new company.

 

There are cases when the incorporation procedure can get delayed if the shareholders or directors are of certain nationalities, although this happens in rare cases only. In such cases, the authorities might ask for additional information.

 

A registration fee of S$300 is payable to the Singapore Registrar of Companies at the time of incorporating a private limited liability company.
