Notarized Singapore Company Documents with an Apostille
We put the core documents of your Singapore company into a single notarized bundle with an apostille. In this form, banks, registrars and government bodies in other countries accept them.
When a Singapore company opens an account abroad, registers a branch or goes through checks with a payment provider, it is almost always asked to prove that it exists and who its directors are. Registry scans are not enough for this: you need certified documents with an apostille. Singapore is a party to the Hague Convention, so an apostille for Singapore company documents, added after notarization, gets them recognized in many countries without consular legalization.
The package contains three documents: the company constitution, the ACRA business profile and the first resolution of the directors and shareholders. A notary certifies them as one bundle under a single certificate, and then the apostille is added. The service is available only to clients who register or maintain their Singapore company with us: that way we are responsible for the accuracy of the company data in the documents.
Available only to clients who register or maintain their Singapore company with Integro World.

Timelines are approximate: government agencies, consulates and banks set them.
What to watch out for
- If a director or shareholder changes after notarization, the package becomes outdated and must be redone
- Some banks accept only a recently issued ACRA business profile
- For countries outside the Hague Convention an apostille is not enough: consular legalization is needed
- A bank or registrar in the destination country may also ask for a translation
FAQ
How much does it cost?
Our service fee is from $200. Government fees, translations, insurance and other mandatory costs are paid separately; we send the full estimate before you sign.
Why do I need an apostille for Singapore company documents?
So that banks, registrars and government bodies in other countries accept them as official. The apostille confirms the notary's signature and seal. Without it, Singapore company documents are, as a rule, not accepted abroad.
What is included in the notarized package?
Three documents: the company constitution, the ACRA business profile and the first resolution of the directors and shareholders. They are certified as one bundle under a single notarial certificate, which then receives an apostille. This is usually enough to open an account or pass a counterparty check.
Can I order the package if my company was not registered with you?
No, this service is available only to clients who register or maintain their Singapore company with us. If your company is currently with another corporate secretary, we can discuss moving its maintenance to us.
Does an apostille work for every country?
No, only for countries that are parties to the Hague Convention. For the others, such as a number of countries in the Middle East and Asia, consular legalization is needed after notarization. We will explain the procedure for your country.
Do the documents need to be translated?
Singapore company documents are in English. Many banks accept them without translation, but some registrars and government bodies ask for a translation into their own language. We check the requirements before sending the package.
Do you guarantee the result?
No. Decisions are made by government agencies, consulates and banks. We are responsible for preparing and checking documents, filing and support, and we tell you about the risks upfront.
