The Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) has announced continued support for Bizfile users experiencing system-related filing difficulties. In a 27 December 2024 update, the regulator confirmed:

  1. Late Penalty Waiver Extension: ACRA will maintain its waiver of late filing penalties for affected users until system stabilization is achieved.
  2. Transaction Date Protocol: For general lodgements (including share transactions), the transaction date recorded in Bizfile will default to the submission date to prevent dating discrepancies.
  3. Critical Filing Support: Users handling time-sensitive statutory transactions may contact the ACRA Helpdesk (+65 6248 6028 / helpdesk@acra.gov.sg) for prioritized assistance.

The measure addresses operational disruptions while maintaining compliance timelines. ACRA advises all corporate service providers and entity administrators to:

  • Proceed with filings using the current system safeguards
  • Retain submission records for potential reconciliation
  • Monitor official channels for further updates
