Can the company name, address, directors or shareholders be changed after incorporating a Singapore company?

Yes, even after incorporation you can change the company name, registered address, directors and company secretary, and shareholder and share information. Most changes must be reported to ACRA via Bizfile within 14 days of the change.

• Company name: apply for and obtain approval of the new name, then change it by special resolution of the shareholders.
• Registered address and business activities: report within 14 days of the change.
• Directors, company secretary and auditors: report within 14 days of appointment or resignation. There must always be at least one locally resident director.
• Shareholders, share transfers and new share issues: update within 14 days; changes in shareholders take effect on the date they are filed with ACRA.

After a change, please also notify your bank, IRAS and business partners, and update your invoice and contract templates. Late filing may result in fines for the company and its officers.

Through its company secretary service, Lee Kim Alliance prepares resolutions and files changes on your behalf.
