Client objective

With a strong presence in China, TCL CSOT wanted to establish an office in Singapore as part of its international expansion strategy.

Owing to the city-state’s global connectivity and pro-business environment, TCL CSOT had identified Singapore as an ideal springboard for international trade, offering the perfect opportunity to take its business to the next level.

Entering the Singapore market for the first time, TCL CSOT recognised that navigating accounting and tax compliance matters in an unfamiliar jurisdiction can be challenging. The company also realised that as they grew their business, they would need assistance with immigration and employment visas, and that it would be crucial to partner with a trusted professional services provider.

 

Our solution

We started working with TCL CSOT in 2023, providing accounting and tax compliance support once the company’s Singapore office was established.

With extensive expertise across Asia, we understood how the compliance requirements in China and Singapore are markedly different.

As TCL CSOT’s business grew, there was a need to employ both locally and to bring people in from outside the country. As a result, we began assisting TCL CSOT with immigration and employment passes, achieving a 100% success rate on all applications.

Confident in the professionalism and support they were receiving, TCL CSOT went on to engage us for company secretarial services as they continued to expand further in the Asia-Pacific region and globally. This required handling the handover from the previous service provider with sensitivity.

 

The result

  • Arrangement of relevant visas meant that employees were up and running at the earliest opportunity
  • Compliance with all relevant local tax and accounting reporting requirements
  • Removal of administrative burdens so that TCL could focus on their core business
