Incorporate Your Company in Singapore

Futre helps entrepreneurs, startups, and foreign investors register a company in Singapore quickly, correctly, and in full compliance with ACRA requirements. Whether you are a Singapore Citizen, Permanent Resident, or a foreign national looking to incorporate a company in Singapore for the first time, our team manages the entire process on your behalf — from company name reservation and ACRA filing through to post-incorporation compliance.

Setting up a private limited company in Singapore is one of the most popular choices for business owners due to its separate legal entity status, limited liability protection, and eligibility for Start-Up Tax Exemption (SUTE). With a minimum paid-up capital of just S$1 and a registration process that typically takes one to two working days, Singapore company formation is fast and straightforward when handled by an ACRA-registered filing agent.

Our team also provides ongoing support after incorporation, including corporate secretarial services, accounting and bookkeeping, and tax advisory services — giving you a single partner for all your compliance and back-office needs from day one.

Why Register a Company in Singapore

Singapore is a top destination for company registration, offering a pro-business environment, a flat 17% corporate tax rate, tax exemptions for new companies, and a strategic position as a gateway to Asian markets.

Choosing a private limited company structure in Singapore gives you significant advantages. You create a separate legal entity, limit shareholders' liability, ensure perpetual succession, and attract investors more easily.

This structure also enhances your credibility with banks, partners, and potential clients, making it a preferred choice for SMEs and multinational subsidiaries.

By understanding these benefits, you can see why so many entrepreneurs and businesses register companies in Singapore with the help of professional advisors. 

The next section explains ACRA’s incorporation requirements and guides you step by step to establish your company successfully.

How to Register a Company in Singapore

Step 1 — Choose Your Company Name

Select a unique company name that must be approved by ACRA via the Bizfile portal. Reserve the name before submitting your incorporation application. The name reservation fee is S$15.

Step 2 — Prepare Incorporation Documents

Prepare all necessary incorporation documents, including particulars of directors, shareholders, and the company secretary, the registered office address, the company constitution, and share capital details. Accurate documentation ensures a smooth registration process.

Step 3 — Submit Your Application to ACRA

Submit your incorporation application through ACRA’s Bizfile portal. Foreigners without a SingPass must engage a corporate service provider, such as Futre, to file on their behalf. The standard ACRA registration fee is S$300.

Step 4 — Receive Your Certificate of Incorporation

Most applications are approved within one to two working days. Upon approval, your company will receive a Unique Entity Number (UEN) and the Certificate of Incorporation, confirming that you have successfully incorporated a company in Singapore.

Step 5 — Post-Incorporation Compliance

After incorporation, companies must appoint a company secretary within six months, open a corporate bank account, and meet ongoing ACRA and IRAS compliance obligations. Futre also provides corporate secretarial services to support these requirements.
