About this service

Your company's yearly filing with ACRA

Every Singapore company files an annual return with ACRA each year. It updates ACRA on the company's key details, such as its officers, shareholders and registered address, and for most companies includes its financial statements.

For most private companies the annual return is due within seven months after the end of the financial year. Late filing can lead to penalties, so it pays to start early.

Questions

Annual Return Filing: common questions.

When is my annual return due?

For most private companies, within seven months after the financial year end. Listed companies have shorter timelines.

Do I need to hold an AGM?

Not always. A private company can skip the AGM if it sends its financial statements to members within five months after the financial year end, among other options.

What happens if I file late?

ACRA may impose late filing penalties, and repeated lapses can lead to further action against directors.
