About Profectant Corporate Services

Profectant is a corporate services firm serving businesses across Singapore and Malaysia, with over a decade of experience and a track record of supporting more than 800 businesses across a range of industries.

The firm covers four main areas: Accounting (bookkeeping, accounting, Xero subscriptions, corporate tax filing, GST, personal income tax, property tax, and withholding tax, plus Malaysia-side accounting and taxation services), Corporate Secretary work (company incorporation, corporate secretary services, nominee director, registered office, company strike off, and Malaysia incorporation and secretarial services), Human Resources (recruitment, payroll, work permits, S Pass and Employment Pass applications, HR compliance, IR21, the Auto Inclusion Scheme, and Malaysia payroll and HR services), and Corporate Services (valuation, due diligence, mergers and acquisitions, trademark applications, grants applications, and regional setup assistance for Malaysia).

Profectant holds close relationships with regulatory bodies including IRAS and the Iskandar Regional Development Authority, and works with partners such as OCBC, Maybank, UOB, Xero, ASEAN CPA, CPA Australia and ISCA. Client testimonials from firms including Mayfair Leasing, EMB3 and House On The Moon describe a responsive team that goes beyond transactional service delivery, with particular praise for their support setting up and running Xero-based accounting systems.

The firm operates from a Singapore office in the Oxley Bizhub on Ubi Road, alongside a Malaysia office in Medini, Iskandar Puteri, Johor — reflecting its focus on helping businesses expand and stay compliant across both markets.

Profectant: Accounting and Corporate Services Across Singapore and Malaysia

Profectant is a corporate services firm built to help businesses handle the paperwork side of operating in Singapore and Malaysia — accounting, company secretarial duties, human resources and broader corporate advisory work, all under one roof.

Over more than a decade, the firm says it has supported over 800 businesses across a wide range of industries, building close working relationships with regulatory bodies including IRAS (Singapore's tax authority) and the Iskandar Regional Development Authority in Malaysia. Those relationships, the firm says, help it navigate compliance requirements and deliver solutions tailored to each client's situation.

What They're Known For

Profectant's work spans four areas. On the accounting side, the firm handles bookkeeping, general accounting, Xero subscriptions, corporate tax filing, GST, personal income tax, property tax and withholding tax — with parallel accounting and taxation services for businesses operating in Malaysia.

For businesses setting up from scratch, Profectant's corporate secretary services cover company incorporation, ongoing corporate secretary duties, nominee director arrangements, registered office provision, and company strike-off — again with a Malaysia-specific incorporation and secretarial offering.

On the people side, the firm's HR services include recruitment, payroll, work pass applications (Work Permit, S Pass and Employment Pass), HR compliance, IR21 tax clearance for departing foreign employees, and the Auto Inclusion Scheme for employment income reporting.

The fourth strand, corporate services, covers valuation, due diligence, mergers and acquisitions, trademark applications, grants applications, and regional setup assistance for businesses looking to establish a presence in Malaysia.

The Experience

Profectant works with a number of established partners, including OCBC, Maybank and UOB on the banking side, and Xero for cloud accounting — a system client Aloysius Fong of EMB3 Pte Ltd credits with giving business owners far more control over their financial information.

Clients describe a team that is responsive and stays involved beyond the immediate scope of an engagement. Lim Tai Toon of House On The Moon calls the team "not transactional," while Ben Wee of Mayfair Leasing Pte Ltd points to smooth handling of accounting, tax computation and secretarial work together.

The firm operates two offices: a Singapore base in the Oxley Bizhub on Ubi Road, and a Malaysia office in Medini, Iskandar Puteri, Johor — positioning it to support businesses operating on either side of the Causeway, or looking to expand across it.
