Can there be any delays in the timeline as mentioned above?
Although not the norm but exceptions do exist. On rare occasions, the authorities may take more time to approve the subsidiary company name or the registration and ask for additional information. These delays can be of two types: • Delay in the name approval by ACRA. Sometimes ACRA can refer the approval of the name to other government agencies and as such the name approval process can get delayed from normal 2 hours to 2 weeks. • Delay in the subsidiary registration by ACRA. Sometimes ACRA can delay the registration based on the particulars of the foreign directors. Under such cases, the registration process can get delayed from normal 2 hours to 2 weeks.
