The Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) is a Singaporean government agency in charge of business entity registration and regulation in the country.

Before you can begin operating as an aspiring Singapore business owner, you must register your company with ACRA. This procedure ensures that your company complies with Singapore’s laws and regulations, as well as giving you access to certain benefits and resources available to registered businesses. ACRA also offers other services and resources to business owners, such as an online business portal through which they can file annual returns and access various business resources.
