Processing Time and Government Fee

如果商业模式简单明了,申请人完全符合相关标准,并且申请完整清晰,MAS 预计审核和处理申请的时间为超过 4 个月左右。对于更复杂的或者更大型的公司,或者信息被评估为不完整或不准确的案件,MAS 将需要更长的时间来审查申请。所以请务必聘请专业服务团队。

MAS expects to take not more than 4 months to review and process an application if the business model is straightforward, the applicant meets the relevant admission criteria fully, and the application is complete and clear. For more complex cases, or cases where information is assessed to be incomplete or inaccurate, MAS will need a longer time to review the application.

政府会收取一次性申请费用1000新币(不可退),如有其他费用或通过官方邮件告知。如果授权牌照,每年需要缴纳2000到8000新币不等的执照年费。

A non-refundable application fee of $1,000 is required. A fee advice and instructions on the amount and manner of payment for the application fee will be e-mailed to your company. There are two types of annual fees – (i) annual fees for the CMS licence; and (ii) annual fees for the representatives appointed by the CMS licensee.
