Key points
ACRA lists examination evidence where applicable, the CPE log and course records, QAE declarations, ISCA good-standing confirmation and employment testimonials. The application is submitted through General Lodgement. The fee is S$1,000 and non-refundable; the stated processing period is 15 working days after the necessary information is received.
Planning your next steps
Applicants relying on foreign QAE must email the additional required evidence within five working days of filing. An approved certificate runs to 31 December of the issue year and requires annual renewal during December. Record that expiry rather than assuming a full twelve-month validity period. ACRA also describes a limited appeal route for specified refusal grounds.
