Business Registration / Sole proprietorship / Partnership

JJ & E can assist you to register a Business registration with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) as according to the Business Registration Act (Cap. 32).

A business firm is a much simple form of setting up a business, as it required low setup cost, has low maintenance fee. It can be either a sole proprietorship or a partnership. Business Registration for sole proprietorship and partnership is normally done within 20 minutes.
