Need an AGM? Check your status in 10 seconds.

Your situation	AGM required?	Annual Return required?	What to do
Non-listed private company, FS sent to all members within 5 months of FYE	Generally exempt (s175A) [TBC]	Yes	Declare exemption when filing the Annual Return
Members passed a resolution to dispense with AGMs	Generally exempt [TBC]	Yes	Confirm conditions met; any member can still request one
Private company not meeting exemption conditions	Yes	Yes	Hold within 6 months of FYE; file AR within 7 months [TBC]

Three steps to your AGM and annual return, fully managed

Step 01

Step 1: Share your financial year end

Your corporate secretary confirms your AGM and Annual Return deadlines, checks your exemption status, and sets up your full compliance calendar.

Step 02

Step 2: We prepare and circulate the documents

AGM notice, agenda, minutes, resolutions, and XBRL statements where required are drafted and sent to your directors for review and signature.

Step 03

Step 3: We lodge the Annual Return with ACRA

Your Annual Return, including the S$60 ACRA fee, is lodged before the 7-month deadline. Confirmation and all documents are archived on your Sleek dashboard. We also lodge your annual return with ACRA as part of a complete end-to-end service.

What ACRA can do if your AGM or annual return is overdue

Escalating Cash Fines: Late Annual Return lodgements attract immediate, compounding penalties from ACRA (up to S$600 per late filing).
Director Liability: Failing to hold a required AGM is a separate statutory offence. Directors can face personal composition fines up to S$5,000 per breach.
The Ultimate Risk: Serious, repeated failure to file can lead to ACRA forcefully striking off your company and disqualifying you from acting as a director under Section 155 of the Companies Act.

A late Annual Return lodgement attracts an escalating penalty from ACRA. Failing to hold a required AGM is a separate statutory offence with its own fines for the company and directors.

Our corporate secretary service automatically tracks your financial year-end timelines to handle documents and submissions long before penalties ever arise.

Need More Time? You can apply to ACRA for an Extension of Time (EoT) of up to 60 days, but this must be submitted before your deadline passes and requires a formal application fee.

FAQs on AGM Singapore

Does my Singapore company have to hold an AGM?

Yes, every private company incorporated in Singapore must hold an Annual General Meeting unless it qualifies for an exemption. The deadline is within 6 months of your financial year end. Some private companies are exempt under s175A of the Companies Act if financial statements are sent to all members within 5 months of FYE and related conditions are met, but this exemption does not remove the Annual Return obligation. Your corporate secretary can confirm which category your company falls into.

When is my AGM due?

For a non-listed private company, the AGM must be held within 6 months of your financial year end. The Annual Return must be filed with ACRA within 7 months of your financial year end. For example, if your financial year ends on 31 December, your AGM deadline falls on 30 June, and your Annual Return is due by 31 July of the following year. Your corporate secretary tracks both dates automatically.

Can my private company be exempt from holding an AGM?

Some private companies qualify for exemption under s175A of the Companies Act. The general conditions require the company to send financial statements to all members within 5 months of the financial year end. Members may also pass a resolution to dispense with AGMs entirely. If exempt, you must still file the Annual Return with ACRA and declare the exemption status in that filing. For a full explanation of the criteria, see

For a full explanation of the criteria, see what a corporate secretary actually does. Our team will confirm whether your company qualifies when you start the filing cycle.

What happens if I miss my AGM or annual return deadline?

A late Annual Return lodgement attracts a penalty from ACRA. [TBC: up to S$600, verify against ACRA at publish.] Failing to hold a required AGM is a separate statutory offence with its own fines for the company and directors. [TBC: up to S$5,000 for non-holding, verify distinction from lodgement penalty.] Repeated failures can lead to company strike-off and director disqualification. A 60-day extension of time is available on application, but a fee applies. If you are already overdue, our team can help you assess your options.

Can I hold my AGM by written resolution or remotely?

Yes. Under the Companies Act, a private company can pass AGM resolutions in writing without a physical meeting, provided all members entitled to vote agree in writing. Virtual meetings conducted by reliable audio-visual means are also permitted. This is particularly useful for companies with directors or shareholders based overseas. Your corporate secretary will advise on the method that best suits your shareholder structure.

Who files the annual return, and is the ACRA fee included?

Your corporate secretary lodges the Annual Return with ACRA on your behalf. The S$60 ACRA lodgement fee is included in every plan from Essentials+ upwards, so there is no separate invoice for the government fee. The Annual Return is also part of the full annual return filing service for companies that need a standalone service.

How do I switch my corporate secretary to Sleek?

Switching is straightforward. You provide your company’s current ACRA records and any outstanding obligations, and our team handles the ACRA appointment update and takes over the compliance calendar from the current filing cycle. Most companies complete the transition within one working week, with no ACRA penalty or fee for changing your corporate secretary. We also liaise directly with your previous provider where needed.
