Registration · ACRA

Registering a Foreign Company Branch in Singapore

A foreign branch registration requires local representation and information about the overseas company.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Key points

ACRA requires a CSP to file the registration and a locally resident authorised representative. Prepare the reserved name reference, home-jurisdiction registration details, Singapore registered office information and position-holder particulars. The office must be accessible for at least three hours on each business day. Relevant controller and nominee information must also be addressed.

Planning your next steps

Supporting documents include the relevant certified corporate records and certified English translations where needed. The stated registration fee is S$300. Complex or referred applications can require additional processing, so payment should not be treated as immediate approval. After approval, retain the UEN and Business Profile and follow the foreign-company annual filing and disclosure requirements.
