Setting up an Appropriate Company Structure: It is important that you have good quality advice when incorporating your company. It is a legal entity that must be appropriate to your anticipated long term needs. Over 20 years of experience in this field has given us the knowledge and understanding that will ensure you are in safe hands. We would like to fully understand your current requirements and your long term aspirations for your company so that our advice is based on a business plan that is appropriate for many years to come.
Stage 1 – Advice
Providing advice on the appropriate company structure for your chosen enterprise. Considerations:
– Personal and Corporation Tax Implications
– Liability of Owners
– Reporting Responsibilities of Company
– Anticipated Turn-Over
– Number of Employees
– Likelihood of Expansion Overseas
Stage 2 – Details
Once the appropriate company structure is agreed upon, you will need to decide the name of your company, management structure, share ownership, and the amount of share capital.
Stage 3 – Incorporation
We will prepare the necessary paperwork for the application to the authorities and manage the process of successfully incorporating the chosen company structure on your behalf. Our charges for the incorporation of companies starts from $1,000. The fees include ACRA fees of $315 and company secretarial services for the first year.
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).
