Does Every New Business In Singapore need A Nominee Director?

WZWU & Partners

In situations when foreigners in Singapore desire to either form a business or extend their current activities in Singapore, a Nominee Director is a person chosen to fill the legal need of a local director.

Despite having the same duties as a normal director under Singaporean law, a Nominee Director is seen as inferior to a regular corporate director and is easily available from a nominee director service. Nominee directors often do not have executive power to make decisions for the corporation to which they are appointed.

Statutory Conditions for a Director Nominee

 The purpose of the regulatory procedures put in place to appoint a Nominee Director is to safeguard your business and the markets you serve.  The prerequisites that a potential Nominee Director appointed by the top corporate tax services Singapore must fulfill before hiring are listed below:  He or she hasn't engaged in dishonesty or fraud crimes  He or she does not have an unaddressed bankruptcy

Does your company need a director nominee?

 A Singapore-incorporated firm is required by the Companies Act to have at least one local director. You will need to hire a Nominee Director if you are a foreigner who wants to form a company in Singapore but is unable to meet the requirements of having a local director. This also applies to foreigners who currently have a Singapore Employment Pass and who are limited to being the company's sole shareholders.  Source Url:
