In some cases, additional documents, beyond the standard requirements, are required based on the ownership type of the business and/or activity. Here’s a quick guide to what may be needed.


A. Business Ownership Type 

Is it applicable to you? 

If your business is owned by another company with shares equal to or exceeding 25%, then the below requirement would apply. 


Requirements:

  • The documents showing the owners of the company/ies that own it, till we can identify individuals that ultimately own 20%~25% or more of your business.
Note: Publicly listed companies are excluded from this requirement.


B. Marketplaces

Definition:

Marketplaces are typically online spaces where many sellers come together to offer their products or services in one convenient location. Whether it's through a website or a mobile app, these marketplaces make it easy for shoppers to browse, compare, and buy from different sellers—all in one place.
