A package that includes the ACRA fee and a secretary is not the same product as one that does not. Counto, HeySara, Lionsworld and FreeIncorp's Value Starter bundle a first-year secretary. OneStop's Starter does not. Three prices are left out of our cheapest ranking because their scope is unclear: S$109 on 3E Accounting's fees page, which does not say whether ACRA's S$315 sits on top, S$315 on Piloto Asia's home page, which equals the ACRA fee, and S$380 on TNPL's home page, which states no scope. They stay in the table so you can ask each firm.

What does ACRA charge on its own?

ACRA's registration fee is S$315, made up of S$15 for the name application and S$300 for incorporation. The company then pays S$60 each year to file the annual return. A firm's price is the ACRA fee plus its own fee, unless the firm says the government fee is inside. Read the official list on the ACRA fee table.

Which firms do not publish an incorporation price?

Acclime, InCorp (Ascentium), Rikvin, BoardRoom, Tricor, Vistra, Hawksford, Paul Wan & Co, Office M, Margin Wheeler, VentureHaven, Achi Biz Services, SOAS, Metrocorp, Skyline Business Consulting, Profectant, Swiftly, WLP Accounting, Koh Mgmt, JCP Trust Accounting. They quote by company type or ask you to send details first. The free quote form asks for those details once and passes them to suitable providers.

How do I pick from this list?

  • Local founder who wants the lowest bill: compare the first four rows, then check the renewal secretary fee on the secretary table.
  • Founder who wants a secretary in year one: HeySara, Counto, Lionsworld and the FreeIncorp Value Starter state a first-year secretary.
  • Foreign founder: read register a company as a foreigner and the nominee director table.
  • Wants a high Google rating: use the rating and review columns together. See the full ranking on the main comparison.

Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest way to incorporate a company in Singapore?

The cheapest published package we read is from S$395 at Lionsworld, then S$450 at BBCIncorp. Doing it yourself costs ACRA's S$315 fee alone, but you still need a local director and a secretary within 6 months.

Do these prices include ACRA's S$315 fee?

Only where the firm says so. The includes column shows what each firm states. Where a firm does not say, assume the ACRA fee may be extra and ask.

Why do prices run from S$109 to S$1,182?

They cover different things. A low figure may cover registration only, while a higher one adds a secretary, bank account help or GST. Compare the includes column, not the headline.

What does a foreigner pay to incorporate in Singapore?

A foreign founder needs a resident director, so firms sell bundles with a nominee director and registered address. HeySara lists a foreigner package from S$3,188, CorporateServices.com S$3,100 and BBCIncorp from S$3,400. See the nominee director table for the full set.

Is the cheapest incorporation firm the best choice?

Not by itself. Price does not show service quality. Check the scope, the renewal fee after year one, the Google rating with the review count, and whether a person answers your questions.
