I HEARD that the Home Office Scheme is now extended to five years. What businesses can I run from home?
Examples of businesses that are permitted under the Home Office Scheme include:
The owners, tenants, authorised occupiers and subtenants of HDB flats, who are 21 years old and above, are eligible to apply under the scheme.
The business should be registered with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority unless it is exempted from registration under the Business Registration Act. The business should also comply with the regulations of other government authorities and relevant licences/approvals must be obtained before the commencement of business.
To search for the licences/approvals that may be required for the business, please use the Online Business Licensing Service at the EnterpriseOne portal http://www.business.gov.sg
