Singapore Family Office

Introduction & Advantages

The concept of the Singapore Single Family Office (SFO) is to manage the wealth of ultra-high-net-worth families. It serves as a private and independent wealth management firm set up by the family to oversee day-to-day administration and provide comprehensive management of the family’s assets. Its primary goal is to assist families in preserving, growing, and transferring their wealth to the next generation and future generations.

 

There are primarily three types of family offices in Singapore: 13D, 13O, and 13U.

 

The main applicant is required to set up two companies: one as a fund company and the other as a Family Office. Through the Family Office, the applicant can engage in investment and financial management while overseeing their assets. This allows them to benefit from the tax exemption scheme for family offices provided by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

 

Furthermore, the main applicant is eligible for an Employment Pass (EP). Spouses and unmarried children under the age of 21 can apply for Dependant Passes (DP), while parents can apply for Long-Term Visit Passes (LTVP). Approximately two years later, the main applicant becomes eligible to apply for Singapore Permanent Resident status (PR), thus achieving genuine investment immigration.
