Where is your business now?
TAILORED EXPLORATION
Five directions. Shaped around your purpose.
One-day orientation
Discuss an initial city-focused visit around neighbourhoods, housing, schools or business setup.
Focused business visit
Build a focused brief around industry, premises and professional consultation, with appointments subject to confirmation.
Business setup exploration
Bring company, tax, factories, people and logistics questions into one visit plan.
Singapore–Malaysia exploration
Discuss the purpose and feasibility of a two-market visit, with route and hosting confirmed separately.
Sector-specific or family exploration
Shape a visit around a specific sector or a household’s housing, school and daily-life questions.
A useful business visit answers practical questions: whether premises fit, which professional work comes first and what information is still needed. Meetings, sites, routes, hosting and quotations form the itinerary only after confirmation.
Discuss a business visit ↗PREMISES · PEOPLE · OPERATIONS
Connect the moving parts of your project.
Premises, machinery, people, transport and professional services have separate dependencies. Define the project first, then coordinate the work and responsible contacts.
Plan setup and the work that follows.
Company structure and incorporation
Begin with activities, shareholders, directors and the proposed structure to coordinate incorporation and secretarial work. Clarify the operating purpose before discussing setup.
Operating permissions and personnel passes
Incorporation, operating permissions and employment passes are separate matters. Explain the industry, premises and intended personnel so specialists can identify the work required.
Offices, shops and factories
Define use, area, size, machinery, logistics and renting/buying plans before shortlisting premises and connecting legal or renovation advice.
Funding consultation
Explain the use of funds, business background and project stage before discussing relevant funding providers. Actual lenders assess terms, quotations and approval.
Accounting, tax, audit and payroll
Review transactions, currencies, systems, staff and records before operating. Define each scope and connect it with secretarial and daily administration work.
Freight, warehousing and machinery
Link machinery imports and cargo movements with premises handover, installation and start dates. Brief the goods, route, dates and storage needs before confirming transport.
Review protection at each project stage.
Import and setup
Discuss the risks and insurance needs around cargo, transport, storage and machinery arrival.
Construction and installation
Review construction, machinery installation, site and contractor protection around the project scope.
Daily operations
Map property, machinery, public/product liability, directors and employee protection.
Continuity and succession
Discuss key people, shareholders and business continuity around the actual company, with scope defined by the relevant professionals.
SAC’s corporate-insurance scope covers assets, machinery, liability, directors/employees, cargo and project risks. Actual cover, exclusions and costs depend on the professional assessment and formal policy.

A little preparation.
A clearer conversation.
An overview is enough to begin. The appointed professional explains how detailed documents should be provided.

Questions before establishing a business.
Can we explore before deciding to establish?
Yes. Brief the industry, cities, proposed activities and questions before discussing visits and professional consultations.
Does incorporation automatically give residency or work permission?
No. Company, operating permissions, personnel passes and residency require separate review. The MM2H & Permits page explains the enquiry directions.
Are funding, insurance and company services included together?
Confirm each provider, scope, quotation and appointment separately. SL can coordinate connected needs without automatically treating all work as one package.
Are government meetings, finance or project returns guaranteed?
No. Visits and meetings require confirmation, finance and approvals are assessed by the actual institutions, and commercial outcomes depend on the project.
