Do I Need a Company Secretary?
Every company incorporated in Singapore must appoint a company secretary. Whether you’re newly incorporated, growing or dormant, the requirement still applies.
Within 6 Months
Your company must appoint a company secretary within six months of incorporation to support its statutory responsibilities.
Keep the position filled
Your company needs a secretary throughout its lifecycle. If the position becomes vacant, it must be filled within six months.
Even when business is inactive
A dormant company still needs a company secretary and must continue filing annual returns while it remains registered as a live company.
A sole director cannot also be the company secretary!
The appointed secretary must meet Singapore’s local residency requirements.
