HeySara provides not only a registered address, but we also offer shared office or hot desking at a monthly fee. Enquire with us.

Even with such private arrangement, the nominee director will have to make a disclosure to the Company by naming his appointor and whereas for the nominee shareholder, he or she will have to make a disclosure to the Company on who his/her registrable controller is. This information will be filed with ACRA confidentially.

I have read the term UBO at a few places, what does it mean?

Financial Action Task Force (FATF) defines beneficial owner as “the natural person(s) who ultimately owns or controls a customer and/or the natural person on whose behalf a transaction is being conducted.
