This is an independent guide and not BoardRoom. We are paid by some providers if a request passed on through our form becomes a client. The form on this page is labelled Compare quotes. It is ours and it is not a BoardRoom form. BoardRoom sees your request only if it suits what you ask for.
What services does BoardRoom list?
| Area | What BoardRoom lists |
|---|---|
| Set up | Company incorporation |
| Governance | Company secretarial, share registry services |
| Finance | Accounting and bookkeeping, tax advisory and filing, international accounting and tax |
| People | Payroll, employee stock ownership plans |
| Reporting | XBRL conversion and filing, ESG reporting |
The XBRL service is relevant if your accounts must be filed with ACRA in that format. Our page on XBRL filing explains who needs it. BoardRoom says the service meets ACRA's requirements, but the page read gives no registration number for the firm as a filing agent.
What is BoardRoom's history?
BoardRoom's site says it was established in as Lim Associates Pte Ltd. It also says it was listed on the Singapore Exchange and was delisted in when 65 Equity Partners and Tower Capital Asia took it private. The site gives 14 offices across six regions: Singapore, Australia, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Vietnam, and says it has over 7,300 clients from startups to listed companies. Those are BoardRoom's claims and we have not checked them.
What does BoardRoom charge?
Not published. The pages read list no prices. A useful quote would say:
- The fee for each service, written separately.
- Whether ACRA fees, such as the S$315 registration fee, are inside the price. See company formation cost.
- The fee after the first year for the secretary and accounting.
- The name and UEN of the BoardRoom company that contracts with you.
- Notice terms.
Is BoardRoom an ACRA registered filing agent?
We could not confirm it. The pages read talk about ACRA compliant XBRL work but they do not state a filing agent registration number. We have not checked ACRA's register, so we do not give a status. Search the public list by name and compare with the entity on your engagement letter.
Where is BoardRoom in Singapore?
The head office is 1 Harbourfront Avenue, Keppel Bay Tower #14-07, Singapore 098632. A directory result lists a separate company called Boardroom Corporate & Advisory Services Pte Ltd. BoardRoom Limited is the group, and subsidiaries sign contracts, so ask which one is yours. Our guide to a corporate service provider explains why the signing entity matters.
Who might BoardRoom suit?
The list of services, which includes share registry and stock plan administration, points toward companies with many shareholders or a listing plan. A founder who needs a one-person Pte Ltd registered quickly may prefer a provider that lists a fixed plan. See Sleek or Osome for firms that publish plan prices. We do not rate any of them.
What does BoardRoom not publish?
- Any price or plan.
- A filing agent registration number.
- A size claim we could check. A directory listing calls it the largest share registrar, but BoardRoom's own pages read do not.
- Response times.
- A minimum engagement for a small company.
For payroll, see payroll services, and for the role of the secretary see corporate secretary.
How does the Compare quotes form work?
Fill in the Compare quotes form on this page with your company type, number of shareholders and the services you want. We pass your request to suitable providers and they reply directly. You may ask us to leave BoardRoom out.
How does BoardRoom compare on price and rating?
BoardRoom shows no price on its own site, so its row in our price tables reads on request. On Google, BoardRoom has 3 out of 5 from 20 reviews. Both were checked in . See the price comparison of the main Singapore setup firms, then ask for a written quote that lists what is included.
