Key points
ACRA identifies entity formation, address services, arranging certain officer roles, nominee-shareholder services, designated accounting activities and filings for others. The scope includes virtual-office arrangements and specified transactions undertaken for accounting clients. A business offering these activities should assess the applicable registration category before providing them.
Planning your next steps
The guidance also explains exceptions, including certain filings for one's own entity or related companies and landlords leasing dedicated physical space under a tenancy. Public accounting entities have a separate deemed-registration framework. The transitional deadline stated on the page was 9 December 2025 and has passed; it should not be presented as a future grace period. Check the detailed scope rather than assume every administrative task requires CSP registration.
