Pillar 3: IRAS Tax Governance

Corporate & Personal Tax Return Filing (Form C-S / Form C)

Singapore's competitive 17% corporate headline tax rate is complemented by extensive exemption schemes (such as the 75% tax exemption on the first $100,000 of normal chargeable income for qualifying new start-ups). However, missing IRAS filing deadlines or inaccurate tax computations trigger severe composition fines and tax audits.

Estimated Chargeable Income (ECI) Submission

Mandatory electronic filing within 3 months of your company's financial year end. We compute and lodge your ECI to secure interest-free installment payments.

Form C-S / Form C-S (Lite) / Form C Lodgment

Comprehensive tax computations incorporating capital allowances, deductible commercial expenses, and loss carry-forward provisions by the statutory 30 November deadline.

GST Accounting & Quarterly F5 Submissions

Quarterly return preparation, input tax claim validation, and voluntary or compulsory GST registration support.

IRAS tax schedule computation and corporate tax compliance files
Corporate secretarial resolutions, register maintenance, and ACRA compliance
Pillar 4: Statutory Secretarial

Corporate Secretarial Services (1 Year FREE Promotion)

Under Section 171 of the Singapore Companies Act, every company must appoint a qualified, resident Corporate Secretary within 6 months of incorporation. A sole director cannot act as secretary. We provide qualified named secretarial officers who maintain all statutory books and liaise directly with ACRA.

Statutory Registers & RORC Lodgment

Maintaining the Register of Members, Register of Directors, Register of Charges, and Register of Registrable Controllers (RORC) to prevent ACRA summonses.

AGM Documentation & Annual Returns

Drafting Annual General Meeting minutes or dispensations, executing board resolutions, and filing Annual Returns on BizFile+ within statutory windows.

Effortless Provider Switch

Unhappy with your current provider? We retrieve your company registers, prepare board transfer resolutions, and log the ACRA change in 14 days with zero downtime.

Pillar 5: Employment Law Compliance

Payroll Management & Central Provident Fund (CPF) Compliance

Singapore's Employment Act enforces rigorous wage payment deadlines and statutory CPF contribution tiers. Late CPF payments incur 1.5% monthly interest penalties, while failing to pay staff within 7 days of the salary period constitutes a punishable offense.

End-to-End Monthly Payroll & Itemized Payslips

Accurate gross-to-net calculations, overtime computations, allowance adjustments, and digital itemized payslips fulfilling MOM requirements.

CPF Direct Electronic Submissions

Monthly computation of employee and employer CPF contributions, along with self-help group funds (CDAC, MBMF, SINDA, ECF) and Skills Development Levy (SDL).

Annual IRAS Auto-Inclusion Scheme (AIS) IR8A

Mandatory electronic lodgment of employee annual compensation packages to IRAS by 1 March, completely automated for your team.

Pillars 6 & 7: Governance & Dissolution

Local Nominee Director & Company Striking Off

Two critical specialized services addressing foreign company establishment and compliant entity winding down.

Local Nominee Director Provision (Section 145(1))

We provide vetted Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents to serve as non-executive resident directors. Backed by indemnity deeds, you retain 100% operational and financial control of company accounts.

ACRA Company Striking Off (Section 344)

Holding a dormant company generates compounding accounting, secretarial, and annual return costs. We verify the 12-point statutory checklist, secure IRAS corporate tax clearance, close accounts, and manage the Government Gazette notice period for clean dissolution.

Pillar 8: Immigration Advisory

Ministry of Manpower (MOM) Work Passes & Visas

Foreign directors and key executives relocating to Singapore must secure an approved work pass. We handle COMPASS points evaluation, salary benchmarks, and document lodgment with MOM.

Employment Pass (EP) Guidance

Navigating the 2025/2026 minimum salary threshold of SGD $5,600/month ($6,200/month for financial services) and COMPASS framework scoring.

EntrePass & Dependant's Passes (DP)

Advising venture-backed founders and coordinating family relocation passes (Dependant's Pass and Long-Term Visit Pass).
