A company is deemed exempt from audits in Singapore, which means these companies will not need to appoint an auditor to have their accounts audited. However, they need to qualify to be a ‘small’ company based on at least 2 of these 3 criteria:

  1. Revenue not exceeding SGD 10 million for the financial year.
  2. Total assets not exceeding SGD 10 million at the end of the financial year.
  3. Number of employees not exceeding 50.

Despite such small companies are exempt from auditing, they still need to prepare accurate financial statements that comply with the standards in Singapore.

Auditing Practices in Singapore

  1. Enhances Credibility And Trust
    By providing independent assurance of the accuracy and reliability of a company’s financial statements, auditing helps to build credibility and trust with investors, creditors, and other stakeholders. This can lead to increased confidence in the company’s financial position and ultimately support its long-term success.
  2. Improves Financial Management
    Auditing provides valuable insights into a company’s financial health, which can help your managers make better decisions and improve financial management practices. This in turn leads to improved efficiency, better use of resources, and ultimately better financial results.
  3. Ensures Compliance With Regulations
    Auditing helps to ensure that a company complies with regulatory requirements and industry standards. By ensuring compliance with regulations, your company will be able to avoid legal and financial penalties and operate in a responsible and ethical manner.
  4. Helps Detect And Prevent Fraud
    Auditors are trained to identify and investigate fraud and other irregularities, which will definitely help you avoid any fraudulent activities in a company. This is especially important for maintaining the integrity of financial reporting and ensuring that stakeholders have accurate information to make informed decisio

ACRA
ACRA is Singapore’s business regulator. It ensures a trusted business environment by overseeing companies, accountants, and corporate service providers. Its functions include registration, financial reporting, auditing, governance, and disclosure. ACRA’s online platform, BizFile+, simplifies business processes.

IRAS
IRAS is Singapore’s tax authority. It assesses, collects, and refunds taxes. IRAS also educates taxpayers and investigates non-compliance. The MyIRAS portal offers online tax services.

Auditing in Singapore
In essence, ACRA sets the rules, and IRAS enforces them. Both agencies work together to maintain the integrity of financial reporting and ensure that companies are operating within the law. This is essential for investors, lenders, and other stakeholders who rely on accurate financial information.

For Employment Pass (EP) holders, nominee director services allow for a smooth transition of ownership once the EP is approved. Options include Short-Term Nominee Director (STND) services for 2 or 6 months, ensuring compliance while awaiting EP approval.
