Many of our clients 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). Just as important, spanish engineering and construction firms have delivered major UAE infrastructure, and food exports continue to grow, which gives Spanish entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Singapore licence is issued. Put simply, the most common businesses Spanish nationals open through GoldenKey are in construction, renewable energy, hospitality and food exports, although Singapore supports almost any activity.
Why Singapore
Crucially, documents for Singapore are collected and attested in the UAE where required, so you do not need to travel for incorporation. Day to day, requirements for a Singapore company are at least one resident director (GoldenKey arranges a nominee), a company secretary within six months and a registered Singapore address. Spanish applicants benefit from the fact that Singapore already has many Spanish shareholders on its register, so its officers recognise Spain documents and name formats instantly.

Frequently asked questions
What are the annual obligations for a Singapore company?
In short, annual returns, accounts and tax filings vary by jurisdiction; GoldenKey provides a compliance calendar and local accounting support.
How does Singapore compare with a UAE free zone?
Each serves different markets. GoldenKey usually recommends the UAE as the operating base and Singapore where you have customers, suppliers or treaty benefits there.
Can my UAE company own the Singapore company?
Yes. A UAE free zone or mainland company can be the shareholder, which is a common structure for groups operating in both markets.
Can a Spanish citizen own 100% of a company in Singapore?
Yes. Spanish nationals can own the full share capital of a Singapore company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Do Spanish nationals need a UAE visa before applying for Singapore?
Not in that case. You can apply for the licence from Spain with scanned documents, and the investor UAE residence visa is processed afterwards.
