Common questions
No. Non-residents cannot file directly with ACRA and must use a Registered Filing Agent, and every Singapore company needs at least one resident director. Commenda, Rikvin, and InCorp are all filing agents and provide a nominee director.
For a Singapore-only (or regional Asia) entity, Rikvin and InCorp are established, full-service choices. Commenda is the better fit for a cross-border group: it manages Singapore alongside entities in other countries, with transfer pricing and consolidation.
Government fees are S$315; with a nominee director (about S$2,000/year), secretary, and address, foreigner packages commonly run S$2,000 to S$5,000+ depending on the provider and scope. Commenda is $2,000 incorporation plus $2,000/year nominee director.
