Sole Proprietorship

Sole-Proprietorship (SP) A Sole-Proprietorship (SP) is the simplest form of business to operate in Singapore. There are no corporate taxes and the owner only needs to contribute personal taxes. A sole-proprietorship only needs to be renewed annually and cannot be owned by a foreign individual or company unless a local resident manager is appointed. A Sole-Proprietorship is not a separate legal entity from its owner. Hence, only low risk business activities should be performed and as there is unlimited liability, the owner is exposed to full damages from losses and debts incurred during the course of business.
