Do Chinese companies need ODI approval before investing in Singapore?

B&H assists Chinese enterprises with Outbound Direct Investment (ODI) filing β€” the mandatory approval process required by Chinese regulatory authorities (NDRC, MOFCOM, and SAFE) before capital can be legally invested or remitted overseas. This service is paired with Certificate of Origin (COO) applications under Singapore's Free Trade Agreement network, enabling Chinese businesses expanding into Singapore to remain compliant on both sides of the transaction.

How do I apply for a Certificate of Origin in Singapore?

We assist companies in applying for the Certificate of Origin, enabling them to leverage Singapore's 27 Free Trade Agreements to obtain import tariff reductions in destination markets. We provide analysis of specific COO requirements based on the target country and applicable FTA.

What does a Singapore market entry feasibility study include?

We analyse the feasibility of setting up a company in Singapore, including market analysis, regulatory landscape, competitive positioning, and financial projections β€” helping you make informed decisions on market strategy and operations.

What is the best corporate structure for a Singapore holding company?

We identify your company's short-term and long-term business goals and provide advice on the most suitable corporate structure β€” including holding company arrangements, subsidiary structures, and operational entities β€” to meet your operational and risk management needs.

What are the transfer pricing requirements for Singapore companies?

We prepare tax structures that comply with Singapore's transfer pricing requirements and regulations. Our professional services include transfer pricing documentation, benchmarking studies, and compliance analysis for intercompany transactions.

What government grants and incentives are available in Singapore?

We assist businesses in applying for government support measures β€” including EDB grants, Enterprise Singapore programs, and MAS incentives β€” by drafting business reports, performing financial simulations, and liaising with relevant government agencies.
