Frequently asked questions

Does this activity require MAS authorisation?

Financial services regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) — banking, insurance, capital markets, payment services — require a licence or registration under the relevant MAS Act or regulations.

What anti-money laundering obligations apply?

MAS Notice 626 and related AML/CFT requirements apply to most financial institutions. Customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, and suspicious transaction reporting are mandatory.

Is a capital markets services licence needed?

Activities involving dealing in securities, fund management, REIT management, and corporate finance advisory typically require a Capital Markets Services (CMS) licence from MAS.

What ongoing MAS reporting is required?

MAS-licensed entities file regular returns (e.g., MAS 610 for banks, quarterly financial returns). The exact schedule depends on the licence type and entity size.

What is SSIC and why does it matter?

The Singapore Standard Industrial Classification (SSIC) is the national system for categorising business activities. It is mandatory at ACRA registration and is used by IRAS, MOM, and other government agencies for tax, licensing, statistical, and policy purposes.

Do I need to register with this SSIC code?

Every business entity registered with ACRA must select at least one SSIC code that best describes its principal economic activity. You can declare up to two codes — one primary and one secondary — via BizFile+.
