Overseas clients, nominee directors and compliance
COMPANY REGISTRATION
Ensure a procedure that is free of hassles and errors when you need to set up a local company. We provide the expertise to assist and advice in a cost-effective and timely manner so that you can focus on other business matters.
WE WORK WITH OVERSEAS CLIENTS
Singapore is an ideal destination for setting up a company. We assist overseas clients in setting up and managing companies in Singapore. We are also familiar with setting up and maintaining offshore companies. If you are a foreigner and are looking to set up a company in Singapore or if you are looking to set up offshore companies, we are well equipped to do the job for you.
Some requirements when overseas clients set up a company in Singapore include:
- ACRA-approved company name
- At least one local resident director (If you do not have a resident director you may use our nominee director services)
- At least one shareholder (maximum 50 shareholders)
- A local company secretary
- A local registered address
- An incorporation agent

In Singapore, every company has to have a local resident director. This director can be a Singaporean, a Singapore Permanent Resident or a foreigner with a valid pass who is residing in Singapore. If you do not have a local director, you may use a nominee director to fulfil this position.
Our nominee director services start from $2,000 per annum. There will be a $3,000 refundable deposit. This deposit will be held by Raffles Corporate Services Pte Ltd (Raffles Corporate Services). The appointed nominee director is not an employee of Raffles Corporate Services. The refundable deposit will be released to the nominee director if the company encouters any legal or administrative matters which require the nominee director to incur disbursements. This deposit will be refunded to the client within 7 working days after the termination of the nominee director service. A reduced deposit will be accepted if the accounts are done in-house by Raffles Corporate Services.
For clients on our nominee director service, please note that we will require monthly bank statements are to be sent to our firm’s mailing address. In the event the company is non-compliant with The nominee director reserves the right to resign if there are non compliance with various regulations.
ADDITIONAL COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS
With the introduction of the Corporate Service Providers Act 2024 (“CSP Act”) which came into force on 9 June 2025, certain duties are placed on corporate service providers (CSP) like Raffles Corporate Services. Due to the increase compliance requirements, we may levy additional fees on foreign individuals especially if the transaction is a remote transaction.
Please note that for remote transactions involving the incorporation or transfer/ sale of a shelf company, we will require a video call to be done with the relevant parties as part of our due diligence requirements.
