Document background
A Board Resolution For Company Name Change is required whenever a Singapore-registered company wishes to modify its registered name. This document is mandated by the Companies Act 1967 and must be filed with ACRA within 14 days of passing the resolution. The resolution records the board's approval of the name change, specifies both the current and proposed names, and authorizes designated officers to handle the administrative processes. Companies typically require this document during rebranding exercises, following mergers or acquisitions, or when strategic business changes necessitate a new corporate identity.
