Corporate Secretarial Services in Singapore

Though a relatively small city-state, Singapore stands out in the Asia-Pacific region due to numerous factors, such as political stability, accessibility, pro-business government policies, and more. Locals, foreigners, or company representatives who are keen on setting up a company in Singapore must comply with the legislation outlined under the Companies Act – one of which is to appoint a company secretary.

Hear from Our Satisfied Clients

Before OneStop, our firm struggled with inefficient processes and high costs. Engaging them has significantly simplified our accounting processes and reduced our administrative costs.

I would definitely recommend OneStop to people seeking accounting services.

Corporate Secretarial FAQs

Corporate Secretarial FAQs

Outsourcing your corporate secretarial services ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, allows you to focus on core business activities, and provides access to specialised expertise that might not be available in-house.
The secretary of a public company in Singapore must meet certain qualifications. They must be a qualified person under the Legal Profession Act, a public accountant, or a member of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Singapore, among other specific qualifications. Alternatively, they can also have prior service as a company secretary for a minimum of 3 out of the 5 years immediately before taking on the role of secretary in the public company.
Individuals who do not qualify to be a company secretary include the sole director of a company and company secretaries who face debarment. Debarment pertains to a scenario in which the Singaporean government revokes an individual’s rights to act as a company secretary, effectively barring them from holding this position due to past misconduct or legal issues.
A company secretary’s roles, duties, and responsibilities include ensuring compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements, maintaining company records, organising board and shareholder meetings, preparing meeting minutes, and advising the board on governance matters. They play a crucial role in the administration of the company and ensuring that the board's decisions are implemented correctly.
