WhatsApp quotePut simply, many of our customers add a Singapore entity to their UAE structure because a Singapore holding company above a UAE operating entity is a classic structure for Asia-Gulf groups. GoldenKey helps UAE residents and international founders register a Private Limited Company (Pte. Ltd.) in Singapore through the ACRA (Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority). In short, typical examples of this activity include gym, yoga studio, sports academy and online coaching, which can as a rule sit together on one Singapore licence. GoldenKey has licensed fitness business businesses for clients in Singapore and knows which sub-activities to list so you are not asked to amend the licence later.
