Company Secretarial Services

It is mandatory legal requirement that a company incorporated in Singapore must have a Company Secretary.

Each company must fullfil their statutory reporting requirements as set out by the Singapore Government Legislation otherwise fines are imposed on a monthly basis until the said requirements are fullfilled. This can lead to costly compounded bills. It is therefore worthwhile appointing a experienced professional company secretary to ensure your company does not fail to comply with Singapore’s reporting requirements.

Whilst Company Secretaries have various legal requirements to fulfill, they do not have any management control of the company.

Providence can provide you with pro-active and efficient Company Secretarial Services at very reasonable all-inclusive annual rates (ACRA fees are to be reimbursed).

This service includes:

AGM ( Annual General Meeting) documentations

Annual Report Filing

Preparation of Directors’ Resolution in Writing for Opening/Closing of Bank Accounts

Changes of Directors’particulars

Other required documentations
