Surabhi

Singapore, Jun 2026

I was referred here by an orthopedic specialist and wanted a nearby clinic, and so far after two appointments it has been good. Zhi has been very approachable with my questions and queries, and with the consultation and explaining my condition, he has been caring and professional. I think he will help me regarding the pain I’m having. The only thing is I feel it is a bit overpriced for a 45 minute session, but I would still recommend him for sure.

Sureen did the interior design for my living room and dining room, and she has an eye for design and did it really well. She gave a lot of options from the start, and we went through a few different designs until she really captured the vision I wanted. She came over personally on the execution day while everything was being put together, like the paintings and furniture, and overall, even though it was a limited scope, she did it very well. She has very fresh ideas, and if you want a different take, she’s very good with that.

I’m still with Gillian and she’s really helpful and provides very good services. I’ve been with her for many months, and throughout the singing bowl sessions she really puts in a lot of effort and has surprised me in all the sessions. The singing bowl she uses is actually different each time to help with the goal I set, and at the end of the sessions she is able to deliver on the goal we set. The price also feels quite reasonable compared to the market.

What to know about legal, financial & administrative in Singapore

Passes, property and company paperwork are where a wrong turn gets expensive. Singapore makes most of it clear, but it is still a lot to learn at once: MOM handles work passes and the Dependant's Pass, ICA handles permanent residency and long-term visit passes, ACRA registers companies, and IRAS deals with tax. Locallista lists lawyers, accountants, corporate secretaries and immigration specialists in Singapore, screened before listing and ranked only on phone-verified reviews. A practising lawyer holds a current practising certificate, and it is fair to ask. Pick a category below and get in touch with a free account.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find a lawyer or accountant I can trust in Singapore?
Check their credentials first, then read recent reviews. Ask a lawyer for their practising certificate and an accountant which professional body they are with. Immigration, tax and company work are different jobs even inside one firm, so look for reviews from clients whose situation matched yours. Every business on Locallista is screened before it is listed. Contact details are visible after you sign up.
Which professional do I need in Singapore?
Start from the task. Passes for your family or a permanent residency application point to an immigration lawyer, company books and filings to an accountant, and tax questions involving foreign or rental income to a tax consultant. For health, home or life cover, talk to an insurance agent. Open the category that matches your situation.
How do I get the right help quickly?
Open the matching category, read recent reviews, and contact one or two with a short summary of what you need, any deadline and the documents you already have. Put the deadline first, since tax filings and pass renewals run to fixed dates. Reviews on Locallista are usually collected by phone after the job, which helps you tell the careful ones apart.
Will I know the fee before the work starts?
You should, so ask for it in writing first. Ask whether the first consultation is charged, whether the work is billed by the hour or at a fixed fee, and exactly what that covers, such as filings, government forms and follow-up questions. Check whether GST is included too. Good lawyers and accountants set this out in a written engagement letter before they start.
Who handles my work pass, my employer or me?
Your employer applies for an Employment Pass or S Pass through MOM (the Ministry of Manpower), not you. Where an immigration specialist helps is the paperwork around it: a Dependant's Pass for your family, a Long Term Visit Pass, or a later permanent residency application through ICA, which is a separate process with its own criteria.
Do I have to file a personal tax return in Singapore?
Usually yes if you have worked here, and the filing window falls in the spring each year. IRAS, the tax authority, pre-fills a lot of it. An accountant or tax consultant is worth it once there is rental income, foreign income or a business in the picture, rather than for a straightforward salary.
How do I register a company in Singapore?
Companies are registered with ACRA, and most newcomers use a corporate service provider rather than filing alone. A private limited company needs a company secretary appointed within six months and at least one director ordinarily resident in Singapore, and a provider handles the whole set. Ask in writing what they cover after registration, such as the yearly filings.
What do legal, financial & administrative services cost in Singapore?
It depends on the service and your situation. As a guide, accountants in Singapore charge around S$60 to S$400 a month, tax consultants around S$150 to S$450 an hour, and immigration lawyers around S$1,500 to S$4,000 for a PR application.
