Frequently Asked Questions: Singapore Business Setup & Compliance

Clear, authoritative answers to the most common questions international founders and local entrepreneurs ask.

Can foreign entrepreneurs own 100% of a Singapore Private Limited company?
Yes. Singapore welcomes international investment and allows 100% foreign equity ownership in almost all business sectors. There is no requirement for local equity participation, no foreign exchange controls, and profits can be freely repatriated back to your home jurisdiction without dividend withholding taxes.
Is a local resident director mandatory under Singapore law?
Yes. Under Section 145(1) of the Singapore Companies Act, every company must have at least one director who is ordinarily resident in Singapore (a Singapore Citizen, Permanent Resident, or an approved EntrePass or Employment Pass holder). For foreign entrepreneurs without a local resident partner, Hallmark provides professional Nominee Director services with clear indemnity frameworks that safeguard your operational control.
What is the minimum paid-up capital required to incorporate in Singapore?
The statutory minimum paid-up capital is only S$1.00 (or equivalent in any major currency such as USD, EUR, or GBP). You do not need to lock up large sums of capital upon incorporation. Capital can be increased at any subsequent point through a simple board resolution and ACRA BizFile+ filing.
When must a named company secretary be appointed?
Section 171 of the Singapore Companies Act requires every company to appoint a qualified resident company secretary within 6 months of incorporation. The sole director cannot act as the company secretary. Hallmark provides certified corporate secretaries who ensure your statutory registers, Annual Returns, and board minutes are impeccably maintained.
What are the criteria for audit exemption in Singapore?
Under Singapore's "Small Company" audit exemption criteria, a private company is exempt from having its accounts formally audited if it meets at least two of the following three criteria in the immediate past two financial years: (1) Total annual revenue does not exceed S$10 million; (2) Total assets do not exceed S$10 million; (3) Number of full-time employees does not exceed 50. However, the company must still compile unaudited financial statements adhering to SFRS for AGM presentation and ACRA filing.
