What is the process for incorporating a Singapore company?

The usual order is submitting company information and documents, paying the fees, signing the incorporation documents electronically and registering with ACRA. Once signing is complete, registration is completed within 1-2 business days.

1. Confirm the company name, business activities, directors and shareholders, and share capital, and submit documents
2. Pay the incorporation fees
3. Sign the incorporation resolutions and other documents electronically
4. Register with ACRA and receive the company registration number (UEN)
5. After incorporation, open a bank account, apply for an Employment Pass and start company secretary services

If the company name or business activity is subject to review by another authority, registration may be delayed.

You can find step-by-step guidance on the Lee Kim Alliance How it works page and apply through the online application form (for-profit company).
