Compare scope and working arrangements

Ask what the quotation includes for bookkeeping, accounts, filings, payroll and company administration. Compare the reporting frequency, software, records you must supply, support arrangements, volume limits and charges for work outside the package. A provider's published service menu does not by itself establish the qualification required for every professional service.

Which option matches your enquiry?

Bestar and SBS publish accounting alongside company administration. SBS also provides registered-address enquiries. Compare the services you actually require and who performs work needing a professional qualification; the comparison does not independently establish registry or audit status.

Counto publishes a platform-based bookkeeping and tax route and describes work with Xero and QuickBooks records. Confirm whether your existing books are managed in place or transferred, the reporting frequency, transaction limits and access included. Do not assume every integration automatically synchronises.

Osome publishes an ecommerce accounting route alongside incorporation and company administration. Sleek publishes Singapore accounting and separate company-service packages. Ask which platform, reporting work, payroll, filings and additional transactions the actual package includes. Compare the same billing period and scope rather than a monthly headline with an annual quotation.

What this guide does not cover

We have not used each firm's services or assessed their work quality. Service responsiveness, accuracy and professionalism are best assessed through an initial consultation. This guide does not constitute financial, tax or legal advice. Complex tax structures, transfer pricing or group consolidation may need specialist firms beyond what is compared here.

Before you enquire

What should I compare besides the headline accounting fee?

Compare reporting frequency, transaction limits, software access, records you supply, bookkeeping and filing scope, payroll or secretary add-ons, support and out-of-scope charges. Use the same billing period.

How do I compare digital and other service arrangements?

Ask how records are shared, who maintains the books, when reports arrive and what access remains between reports. Do not infer that every digital plan synchronises all software or that another provider works offline.
