# How Much Does It Cost to Incorporate a Company in Singapore? (2026)

> Based on firms fully scored in Verdict SG's live, in-progress ranking. Last updated 18 August 2026.

Osome: **S$600 all-in** (ACRA fee included). 3E Accounting: headline reads **S$4,713**, but that bundles an optional nominee-director service — the true applicable price for a founder with a local resident director is **~S$533**. HeySara: **S$1,097–S$1,398/yr** (ACRA fee included), an annual retainer model rather than a one-off fee.

## ACRA government fees

S$15 name application + S$300 incorporation = S$315 total, payable directly on BizFile if incorporating yourself.

## Company secretary

Mandatory within six months of incorporation. Expect S$300–S$600/year, sometimes bundled.

## Foreign founders

A resident director is required. Osome and 3E Accounting (for shopper's scenario) confirmed no nominee-director is needed if a co-founder is already Singapore-based; the overseas co-founder completes KYC digitally.
