Branches and subsidiaries

A branch office is a considered an extension of the parent company and is not considered a separate legal entity. Hence, its liabilities extend to the parent company, meaning the parent company can be sued in Singapore.

A local subsidiary is a separate legal entity from the foreign company even if the latter may be its only shareholder and will maintain control over its board of directors. This means that the foreign company does not have to bear the losses and liabilities of the local subsidiary.

The branch office must also submit its own accounts, as well as the parent company’s accounts, must be filed annually. Some parent companies choose the subsidiary company option to avoid this.

Activities conducted by the branch office must be similar to that of the parent company as it is merely an extension, while the subsidiary company is allowed to undertake activities which is different from the parent company.

In summary, a branch office is preferred by multinational corporations (MNCs), banks and insurance companies that want to use the brand name and finances of the parent company to secure licences and business contracts, while a subsidiary company is favoured by many foreign companies when establishing a presence in Singapore because subsidiaries enjoy local tax treatment and a separate legal identity.

Both options serve as credible options for foreign firms which want to expand operations in Singapore, or use the island state as a springboard into the Asia Pacific region and tap into the ample opportunities which are present there.
