Singapore Company Registration offers Indian entrepreneurs access to Asia's premier business hub and one of the world's most competitive economies. Singapore is consistently ranked #1 for ease of doing business, with world-class infrastructure, robust legal system, and exceptional connectivity to Asian markets. A Singapore company instantly signals credibility and professionalism to global clients and investors.
The most popular structure for foreign entrepreneurs is the Private Limited Company (Pte Ltd). Singapore allows 100% foreign ownership with no capital requirements beyond the nominal S$1. However, every Singapore company must have at least one resident director (Singapore citizen, PR, or EntrePass holder), which can be fulfilled through a nominee director service.
Singapore's 17% corporate tax rate (among the lowest globally) combined with tax exemptions for new startups makes it highly attractive. There's no capital gains tax, no tax on foreign-sourced income (under certain conditions), and dividends are tax-free. Singapore has an extensive network of free trade agreements and over 80 comprehensive double taxation agreements including with India.
At IncorpX, we provide comprehensive Singapore company formation services for Indian entrepreneurs. From ACRA registration to bank account opening, nominee director services, and ongoing compliance, we handle everything. Our team has helped 700+ Indian businesses successfully establish their Singapore presence.
