FAQs

Here are some common questions we recieve from our customers.
If you have any additional questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

When must Singapore companies file their Annual Return?

The Annual Return filing date is not fixed and varies based on the financial year-end (FYE) of companies. ACRA requires submission within 7 months after FYE. Additionally, it is important to note that the Annual Return should be lodged within a month after shareholders sign the resolution approving the financial statements. If shareholders sign the resolution before 5 months after FYE, submit the Annual Return to ACRA within a month after that timeframe.

Do you need to submit the financial statements together with my AR?

There is a common misconception that the submission of financial statements (FS) and the filing of the Annual Return are separate processes. In reality, they are combined into a single submission if your business falls into the category of companies required to submit FS. However, companies with fewer than 20 shareholders and no partial ownership by other businesses are exempt from submitting financial statements to ACRA. If your company has corporate shareholders or is insolvent, it is mandatory to submit the financial statements along with the Annual Return.
