Can Australians Start a Business in Singapore? 2026 Overview

Corrected by Ilayda Nil Kara · on Corpy · 14 July 2026 · View published page ↗

Guide for Australian founders opening Singapore Pte Ltds in 2026 covering incorporation and banking issues.

The exact change

Before

Australia has robust Controlled Foreign Company rules under Division 9 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, supplemented by the Base Erosion and Anti-Avoidance measures and recent changes aligning with BEPS.

After

Australia has robust Controlled Foreign Company rules under Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, supplemented by the Base Erosion and Anti-Avoidance measures and recent changes aligning with BEPS.

Suggested change

Corrected a statutory citation for Singapore's controlled foreign company (CFC) rules, which had cited the wrong part of the relevant Act (should be Part X, not Division 9 Part III).

Why this is better

The article cited the wrong statutory location for Australia's CFC rules (Division 9 of Part III instead of the correct Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
