Incorporation And The Advantages It Brings

By Eri San


Incorporation means that a particular business undergoes a legal procedure which will eventually pronounce it as a corporation. After the process, an incorporated business can then exercise the rights like that of an individual. Even if certain differences apply, a legal corporation still enjoys several advantages after it gets a state charter. The charter by the way, pertains to the document issued by the authority in an incorporation process. The charter specifies the rights which may be legally exercised by an incorporated business. The articles of association on the other hand, pertain to the document which describes the significant details in relation to the company like its operations, purpose, governance and regulation.

Under the Singapore law, the business with more than 20 members under its roster should incorporate itself as a company. But a partnership among individuals whose professional practice is governed by the Legal Profession Act falls under an exception to the rule.

Company registration or company formation as it's otherwise known comes with substantial advantages. Such advantages include limited liability. Also, a restriction with respect to the amount of paid-up capital also works in favor of the incorporated business. Considerable tax savings similarly make it to the list of the advantages of company formation in Singapore.

Businesses who want to enjoy such advantages can find assistance in the form comprehensive services for company registration. They take the form of a service provider that offers reliable and affordable assistance which require minimal effort from the customer's end. The services provider will merely ask the client to supply significant information such as the proposed company name, description of business activities, paid-up capital, registered office address, directors' and shareholders' names as well as their specifics, copy of their passport or ID and contact details.

This will only take 2 working days. After the company name reservation and registration process, the incorporated business may then take calculated risks without placing its owners, directors as well as shareholders on the line especially with regards to their financial liability. These same risks may very well bring success to an incorporated business by tracing a path of less risk with more gain.
