FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Singapore or Hong Kong better for a holding company?

Both are excellent. Singapore offers a strong treaty network and substance options; Hong Kong offers simple territorial taxation and access to mainland China. We help you choose.

Can foreigners own 100% of the company?

Yes in most APAC hubs, including Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia. Some sectors and countries have local shareholding rules we will flag in advance.

Is a local director required?

Some jurisdictions (e.g. Singapore, Australia) require at least one resident director โ€” we can provide a qualified nominee director service.
