Build your compliance calendar

Add each company with its financial year end and incorporation date. You get every deadline for the next 12 months on one calendar, with the rule behind each date. Nothing leaves your browser until you send the form.

Your entities

    The planner needs JavaScript. With the filing rules and the CSV template you can build the same calendar by hand.

    What are the statutory deadlines for companies in Singapore and Hong Kong?

    The general rules for a private company limited by shares. An extension, a waiver or a longer first financial year moves the date.

    Singapore private company

    Obligation When it is due Applies to Fee or late consequence
    Estimated Chargeable Income (ECI) Within 3 months after the financial year end (FYE). Every company, unless annual revenue is S$5 million or below and the ECI is nil (both conditions, self-assessed). No government fee

Solvent exempt private companies need not file financial statements; smaller companies (revenue and total assets both S$500,000 or less) file simplified XBRL. ACRA fee S$60.

In a group, the whole group must also meet them on a consolidated basis. No government fee

    Hong Kong private company

With a tax representative, the block extension scheme moves the due date by FYE: no extension for FYEs from April to November, about mid-August for December, about mid-November for January to March. No government fee
    Employer’s Return (BIR56A with IR56B) Issued on the first working day of April and filed within one month of issue. The block extension scheme does not apply. Employers. Once the IRD has issued one, it must be filed even if the company has no employees. No government fee

    Significant Controllers Register Kept at the registered office or a place in Hong Kong, with every change entered within 7 days. Every company. No government fee

    How we count the dates

    • A financial year ends on the last day of the month. “Within 6 months after the FYE” means by the last day of the sixth month, so a 31 December FYE gives an AGM by 30 June.
    • We take the first financial year to end at the first FYE after incorporation. A longer first year, up to 18 months, moves the first set of dates.
    • Singapore GST quarters are taken to end with your FYE. IRAS sets your actual periods when you register.
    • Hong Kong tax returns are counted from the first working day of April, after weekends and the Easter holidays. Treat those dates as estimates until the IRD issues the return.
    • The calendar runs from today to the end of the twelfth month. Overdue filings are not listed, so check past years separately.

    Running compliance across several entities

    A calendar works when someone answers for it. We will run ongoing management this way once Innaltis opens.

    1. One owner per entity

      Name one person who answers for each company’s calendar, even when the filings are outsourced. That person signs off when a date is closed.

    2. One calendar for the group

      Keep every entity’s dates in one list, sorted by due date. The CSV from the planner can be that list.

    3. A reminder 30 days before

      Thirty days leaves time to collect bank statements, chase the auditor and get signatures from directors abroad. The calendar file sets the reminder.

    4. A document trail

      File each signed resolution, return and receipt against the deadline it closed. Next year’s work and any investor’s due diligence start from that file.

    5. Know who signs

      For each filing, write down who signs (a director, the secretary or the auditor) and whether they can sign remotely. Late filings usually come down to a missing signature.

    Before you move anything

    A 30-minute call to understand your owners, activity and timeline, and to tell you whether a structuring consultation is worth your time. No commitment. To decide which entities to keep, merge or close, book the structuring consultation: 2 hours with our founders, remote, S$880, fixed. Written summary included.

    Who you will work with

    Innaltis is run by its founders, who come from corporate consulting and business law. You deal with them directly, from the first call to the written summary. Structuring questions are part of the job, never a surprise invoice. Regulated filings are executed by licensed firms we appoint and supervise, each named in your engagement letter. We introduce the team by name at launch.

    How we work

    1. Scope

      A 30-minute call on your owners, activity, target market and timeline. We then agree the agenda and the price in writing.

    2. Structure

      We write up the structure: entities, ownership, directors, substance and the questions that need a specialist tax or legal opinion.

    3. Set up

      Once we open: incorporation, company secretary, registered address and resident director where required, executed by licensed firms we appoint and supervise.

    4. Run

      Bookkeeping, accounts, tax, annual return and meetings tracked in Atlas and reviewed by people, with a reminder before every deadline.

    Who should own this calendar?

    Answer four questions about your group. We reply within one business day with what we would change, and keep you posted on ongoing management and Atlas.

    Incorporation and ongoing compliance open in Q1 2027. Registering now reserves your founding-client terms. Nothing is filed and nothing is charged before then.

    We reply within one business day. No payment and no commitment: this request only starts a conversation. We never share your data, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.

    Questions from finance teams

    Are the dates legally binding?

    No. The planner applies the general rules of ACRA, IRAS, the Companies Registry and the IRD to the dates you enter. An extension, a longer first financial year, a tax return issued on another day or a block extension through your tax representative will move a date. Confirm each date with the authority or your company secretary before you rely on it.

    What if my financial year end is not 31 December?

    Choose the FYE month for each entity and every date moves with it. A Singapore company with a 30 June FYE has its ECI due by 30 September, its AGM by 31 December, its annual return by 31 January and its Form C-S by 30 November of the following year. A Hong Kong company with a 31 March FYE holds its AGM by 31 December, and its profits tax return falls under the “M” code if a tax representative files it.

    Does it cover other countries?

    Singapore and Hong Kong only, the two places where Innaltis will operate. If your group also has a parent in France or a subsidiary in Vietnam, add those rows to the CSV by hand. The columns work for any country. Mention the other countries in the form and we will take them into account.

    Where is my data stored?

    Nowhere. The planner runs in your browser, and your entities are gone when you reload. Nothing reaches us when you build or download a plan. If you send the form, we receive the number of entities, their jurisdictions and FYE months, and the number of deadlines. We never receive the company names.

    What is Atlas?

    Atlas by Innaltis is the client platform we are building: a group view of every entity, deadline tracking for each company, and the resolutions, registers and filings in one document library. It is planned for Q1 2027 and is not available today. The compliance planner is separate, free and available now.

    Can Innaltis take over our compliance?

    Not yet. Ongoing compliance in Singapore and Hong Kong is a planned service that opens in Q1 2027, and nothing is filed for you before then. Register your interest and we will contact you before launch. When an existing company moves to us there is no incorporation fee, and taking over the records from your previous secretary is included.

    What penalties apply for a late annual return?

    In Singapore, ACRA charges S$300 when the annual return is filed up to 3 months after the due date and S$600 after that. In Hong Kong, the HK$105 fee for Form NAR1 becomes HK$870 after the 42 days, then HK$1,740, HK$2,610 and HK$3,480 more than 9 months late. In both places the company and its officers can also face prosecution.

    Can I share the plan with my accountant?

    Yes. The CSV opens in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers, with empty Owner and Status columns for you to fill in. The .ics file imports into Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar, and each deadline comes with a reminder 30 days before. You send the files yourself, and we never see them.
