Compulsory Licences

 

  • Certain types of businesses require a special licence before they can operate.

  • Private schools, video companies, travel agencies, liquor distributors, moneylenders, banks and childcare centres are some examples.

  • You will need to apply for these licences when you register your business with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA).

  • In such cases, it may take between 14 days - 2 months to get all the necessary licences, permits and approvals to form your business.

  • You can register your business and apply for the compulsory licences at the same time using the Online Business Licensing Service (OBLS).
