Yes, under the Companies Act, all Singapore-incorporated companies must appoint a qualified company secretary within 6 months of incorporation. The secretary plays a key role in ensuring compliance with ACRA regulations by preparing board resolutions, maintaining statutory registers, filing annual returns, and advising directors on governance matters. Failing to appoint a secretary may result in enforcement actions or penalties.
Yes, but only if the company has more than one director. A sole director cannot act as the company secretary. This rule ensures independent oversight of statutory compliance. For SMEs, outsourcing the corporate secretary role is a common and cost-effective solution to ensure your filings, records, and registers are professionally handled.
A corporate secretary is responsible for maintaining statutory registers (e.g., Register of Members, Directors, and Controllers), preparing and filing annual returns with ACRA, ensuring timely AGM arrangements, drafting directors’ resolutions, and advising on regulatory compliance. The secretary also keeps the company informed of important deadlines and ensures that records are properly updated and maintained.
The RORC is a mandatory register that records individuals or entities with significant ownership or control over a company. It must be maintained by the company and filed with ACRA. The corporate secretary typically oversees the RORC and ensures that it is updated within 2 business days of any change, as required under Singapore’s anti-money laundering regulations.
Missing ACRA deadlines for Annual Return or changes to company details can result in late filing penalties ranging from S$300 and upwards. Continued non-compliance may lead to enforcement action or even company striking-off. A competent company secretary helps you stay compliant by managing filing schedules and sending timely reminders, so you never miss a deadline.
