Private Limited Company
This is the most popular type of business structure in Singapore. It is a separate legal entity from its owners, and the owners’ liability is limited to their investment in the company. Pte. Ltd.s are also subject to fewer regulatory requirements than other business structures.
Sole Proprietorship
This is the simplest type of business structure. It is owned and operated by one person, who is personally liable for all debts and obligations of the business.
Partnership
This is a business owned by two or more people. The partners are jointly liable for all debts and obligations of the business.
Visa to run a company in Singapore
Once you have incorporated your company in Singapore, you can apply for a work visa or pass. The process and requirements for each type of visa may vary, so you should check the specific requirements and application process with the Singapore Ministry of Manpower (MOM).

Frequently Answered Questions
Foreigners can register a company and own 100% of its shareholding in Singapore. However, they must appoint a local resident director or authorized representative to manage the company if they wish to continue to reside outside Singapore.
The local director or authorized representative must be a Singapore Citizen, Singapore Permanent Resident or an Employment Pass holder. They will have personal liability for the appointment.
Foreigners with EntrePass can register a company in Singapore themselves using Bizfile+. However, foreigners without EntrePass will need to engage the services of a registered filing agent to submit the application on their behalf.
