Every Singapore company must have at least one director who is ordinarily resident in Singapore. Founders who do not live there need a nominee resident director; it is quoted on request, because it carries obligations we review case by case.
Incorporation with ACRA is quick once the director question is settled. The corporate tax rate is 17 %, with partial exemptions for new companies.
