What our partners say about us
I am glad that I chose HeySara as my Company Secretary. As a new start-up, I needed a good and affordable Secretarial Plan that covers all the necessary compliance. HeySara is just what I need. Not to mention the great service and support.

The person in charge has been very friendly and helpful from the start, and I am very happy to be on-board. Service is personal and all my filings are done in time. I trust that my secretarial work is in good hands.

Before signing up, I have done some comparing with a few other alternatives and HeySara offers the best price and benefits. I wasn’t expecting anything more, but they went beyond my expectation; incorporation done on the same day! Spot-on service and support. I’m 100% satisfied.

I strongly recommend HeySara. I’ve been on the move a lot so one can definitely appreciate how registering a company can be done online. Nice website interface, and smooth layout!
