Company Secretary & Incorporation in Singapore – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can my company’s name be similar to another company or a well-known brand like Google?
It is not advisable to choose a name that is similar to existing companies or well-known brands.
When submitting a name application, ACRA’s system will reject any name that is too similar to an existing registered company.
Even if ACRA initially approves your chosen name, the rightful overseas trademark or brand owner may lodge a complaint. If they can prove prior ownership of the name, ACRA may instruct you to change your company’s name.
What is the minimum share capital required?
The minimum share capital is 1 share unit, for example:
- SGD 1.00 per share
- USD 0.01 per share
However, it is recommended to declare a capital amount that reflects your actual startup needs. Declaring very low capital may affect your company’s credit profile in the eyes of customers, suppliers, banks, or government agencies.
Can I choose any month as my company’s financial year-end?
Yes, you are free to select any month as your financial year-end. However, your first financial year must be within 18 months from the date of incorporation.
Example 1:
- Incorporation Date: 6 June 2025
- Year-End: 30 June 2025
- 1st Financial Period: 6 June 2025 – 30 June 2025 (1 month)
- 2nd Financial Period: 1 July 2025 – 30 June 2026 (12 months)
