A foreigner, who wants to register an LP in Singapore, is required to appoint a locally resident manager (e.g. Singapore citizens, Permanent residents or holders of EntrePass/ Employment Pass). The foreigner can continue to reside outside Singapore.
FIN holders are advised to to check with the relevant pass issuing authority (e.g.MOM/ ICA) on their eligibility before registering or taking on an appointment (e.g. manager).
The foreigner must engage the services of a registered filing agent (e.g. law firm, accounting firm or corporate secretarial firm) to submit the online application on his/her behalf.
Individuals who have a Singpass may register the LP online via Bizfile (ACRA’s online filing system) using their NRIC or FIN and Singpass.
Any person above the age of 18 years old can be a partner of a Limited Partnership.
