Limited Partnerships (Amendment) Regulations 2026 - Name Reservation Fee Change to $15
Summary
Singapore's Ministry of Finance has amended the Limited Partnerships Regulations (Rg 1) to set the name reservation application fee at $15. The amendment, effective 6 May 2026, modifies the First Schedule of the principal regulations and applies to entities seeking to reserve a proposed name for a limited partnership under Section 17(1) of the Limited Partnerships Act 2008. This is a routine fee adjustment for business registration services.
What changed
The Limited Partnerships (Amendment) Regulations 2026 amend the First Schedule of the Limited Partnerships Regulations (Rg 1) by updating item 6, which governs fees for name reservation applications. The amendment replaces the previous fee amount with a new rate of $15 for applications submitted under Section 17(1) of the Limited Partnerships Act 2008. The regulations were made by the Minister for Finance under Section 41 of the Act and come into operation on 6 May 2026.
Affected parties include persons establishing or managing limited partnerships in Singapore who need to reserve a proposed partnership name. The $15 fee represents a standardized cost for this administrative service. While this change has minimal compliance implications, organizations should update their internal processes and budgets to reflect the new fee amount when filing name reservation applications with the relevant authorities.
What to do next
- Monitor for updated fee payment requirements for limited partnership name reservations
- Budget $15 for future name reservation applications under Section 17(1) of the Limited Partnerships Act 2008
