To register a company, you need a registered address in Singapore so that the company can be contacted via mail. However, it is not necessary for the registered office address to be the place where the business operates.
Under the Singapore Companies Act, if a company changes its registered address, it must notify ACRA within 14 days of the change and provide a new address to ensure that the company can be contacted as per ACRA’s records.
Note: If the company does not notify ACRA of the change of address, the company and its officers (including directors) will be guilty of an offence under the Companies Act and will be liable for conviction, or a fine not exceeding S$5,000.
