Key points
ACRA maps sole proprietorships and partnerships to PAFs, LLPs to ALLPs and companies to PACs. The relevant professional conditions apply; for a PAF, the existing partners must all become partners in the new firm. Eligible PA position holders can file or a CSP can act for the applicant.
Planning your next steps
The application uses General Lodgement. Published fees are S$115 for PAF status and S$315 for ALLP or PAC status, with most applications processed within 15 working days. ACRA warns that the existing business and UEN cease and the PAE receives a new UEN. Review the operational implications before filing, including updates needed for records and counterparties.
