Yes, foreigners are allowed to set up business in Singapore. Foreign entrepreneurs can establish a private limited company, but with a Singapore Citizen or Singapore Permanent Resident as a local director.

As a foreigner, you can engage the services of a Registered Filing Agent (RFA) to submit the online application with the regulatory authority viz. ACRA.

Employ a director who meets the requirements described in the above section on Directors.

You may choose to reside outside Singapore after setting up your local company. However, if you wish to be present in Singapore to manage the company operations, you must seek approval from the Ministry of Manpower (MOM).
