DIY Incorporation vs. Professional Help

While local entrepreneurs technically have the option to register a company themselves through ACRA’s BizFile+ portal, this approach is often not advisable. As the saying goes, “what looks easy often hides the real complexity.” Incorporation involves more than just submitting forms — it requires an understanding of legal obligations, compliance rules, and documentation standards. Many who try the DIY route lack a full understanding of the statutory obligations and run into into compliance errors and costly missteps.

Here’s why engaging a licensed Corporate Service Provider (CSP) is a smarter, safer choice.

  1. Compliance Piece of Mind
    ACRA’s BizFile only facilitates the technical act of incorporation — it doesn’t guide you on compliance obligations. A CSP ensures your company is set up correctly and complies with Singapore’s legal, tax, and regulatory requirements from day one.
  2. Accurate Setup from the Start
    Many first-time DIY incorporators make mistakes when selecting the right shareholding structure, business activity codes (SSIC), or issuing share capital. These mistakes can be costly or hard to fix later. A CSP will advise you and set things up correctly.
  3. End-to-End Support
    Incorporation is just the beginning. A CSP handles all post-incorporation tasks: share certificates, company seal, first board resolution, statutory registers, AGM filing calendar, and more — none of which are handled by BizFile.
  4. Saves Times, Avoids Hassles
    Even experienced entrepreneurs can waste time navigating unfamiliar forms or making errors in documentation. A digital CSP platform like ours simplifies everything with structured workflows, digital signatures, and dedicated support.
  5. Better Long-Term Administration
    A CSP provides tools, reminders, and expert help to keep your company compliant over time — including with ACRA, IRAS, and other regulatory bodies. BizFile does not manage your compliance.

    Required Documents

    The following supporting documents will be required from you when incorporating your company.

    For each Director, Shareholder and Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO) of the proposed company:

      1. Passport copy
      2. NRIC copy for Singapore citizens and PRs (or FIN card for Singapore work pass holders)
      3. Residential address proof (for example, a driver’s license, a recent utility bill, rental agreement, etc.)
      4. Brief professional background. This can be in the form of a curriculum vitae (CV), resume or link to the person’s LinkedIn profile.

    Expert Help. Honest Service.

    The ACRA-approved service teams on our platform are ready and available to assist you.
