Asia KYB

To verify a Singapore company for KYB and AML purposes, compliance teams should search ACRA's BizFile+ portal for registration status and the entity's Unique Entity Number; obtain an ACRA Business Profile for directors, shareholders, and filing history; verify that any nominee directors are arranged by a registered Corporate Service Provider; request Register of Registrable Controllers (RORC) confirmation for beneficial ownership; and run AML screening across the identified ownership chain. Ongoing monitoring is required to detect changes after onboarding.

To verify a Hong Kong company for KYB and AML purposes, compliance teams should search the Hong Kong Companies Registry for registration status, incorporation documents, and director filings; review the Annual Return for shareholder data; cross-check the Business Registration Certificate with the Inland Revenue Department; and supplement registry data with structured commercial intelligence to resolve beneficial ownership chains that the Significant Controllers Register does not make publicly available.
