Summary

Singapore's Ministry of Finance published Amendment No. 2 to the Fees (Winding up, Restructuring and Dissolution of Companies and Other Bodies) Order 2005, updating statutory cross-references from the Companies Act to the Insolvency, Restructuring and Dissolution Act 2018. The Order updates references to winding up, restructuring, and dissolution provisions including sections 130, 197, 212, and 214.

What changed

The Amendment Order modifies paragraph 2 and the Schedule of the principal Order 2005, replacing outdated statutory references. Specifically, it updates references from Companies Act provisions (Part X, sections 130, 197, 212, 214, 322, 345, 347) to corresponding Insolvency, Restructuring and Dissolution Act 2018 provisions. In paragraph 2(a)(vi) and (vii), references to "Part X of the Companies Act" are replaced with "Parts 8 and 9 of the Insolvency, Restructuring and Dissolution Act 2018."

Legal practitioners and insolvency practitioners should review any internal documents, templates, or checklists that reference the old statutory provisions in the context of fee calculations under this Order. While no new fees or obligations are created, practitioners must ensure their documentation uses the updated statutory references when citing the basis for fees on company dissolution and restructuring matters.

What to do next

  1. Review internal documents and templates referencing fee calculation statutory bases under the principal Order
  2. Update cross-references in any fee schedules or guidance documents to reflect new Insolvency, Restructuring and Dissolution Act 2018 citations
  3. Brief relevant staff on the statutory reference changes to ensure consistency in filings and applications
