- Whether the fee covers one year, the first year only, or the renewal too.
- Who can resign or remove the nominee, and on what notice.
- Whether GST is inside the price.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a nominee director cost in Singapore?
Standalone prices we found run from S$2,180 a year at 3E Accounting to S$2,725 a year at Counto, which includes 9% GST and bundles a secretary and address. OneStop lists S$2,400 for 12 months.
Do I need a nominee director?
A Singapore company needs at least one director who lives in Singapore. A foreign founder with no resident director hires a nominee or relocates on a work pass. See our page on the local director rule.
What is the risk of a nominee director?
The nominee carries legal duties as a director. Ask what the contract says about your instructions to them and who can remove them.
Is the nominee director fee all I pay?
No. You also pay incorporation, a registered address, the secretary and accounting. Bundles for foreigners include several of these. Check the bundle table.
Which firm is cheapest for a foreigner?
On the figures we read, CorporateServices.com lists S$3,100 and HeySara from S$3,188 a year, but they cover different things and for different periods. Compare the cover column.
