Does a Singapore company require a local resident director (Nominee Director) ?

What is the role and scope of nominee local director service?

No, you are not required to visit Singapore to incorporate your subsidiary company. We can work with you via emails and document couriering to get the necessary work done. However, for the bank account opening, a visit to Singapore might be a good idea. Almost all banks require an interview with the stakeholders, and the process can go a lot smoother if there is a face-to-face meeting between you and the bank officer. For most banks, we can arrange the meeting at our own office. If, however, you are not able to visit Singapore, the bank will conduct a phone interview, and the due-diligence process can take longer.
