Getting Your Documents Certified in Singapore Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated
If you’ve ever had to open a bank account, apply for a visa, or submit documents to a government agency, you’ve probably come across the term “Certified True Copy” or CTC for short. It sounds formal and intimidating, but it really isn’t. At its core, a Certified True Copy simply confirms that your photocopy is an exact match of your original document. It’s a quick but important step that prevents issues later when authorities need to confirm your identity or proof of address.
We make this process easy, fast, and stress-free.
What Exactly Is a Certified True Copy (CTC)?
A Certified True Copy is a photocopy of your original document like your NRIC (pink or blue), passport, utility bill or bank statement that has been reviewed, stamped, and signed by an authorised professional.
This professional (in our case, a Chartered Accountant Singapore) checks the original against the copy, ensures everything matches, then certifies it as true. The stamp and signature confirm that the photocopy is a faithful reproduction of the original document.
It’s a common requirement for Visa and immigration applications, Bank account openings, Employment verification, School enrolments, and Legal filings and property transactions
Can a Chartered Accountant Certify Documents in Singapore?
Yes. Chartered Accountants in Singapore are officially recognised professionals authorised to certify true copies of identification and financial documents. While they do not verify the authenticity of your original document, they do confirm that your copy accurately reflects the original and this is what most institutions require.
Important: Before engaging any certification service, always check with your document recipient (such as a government body, bank, or embassy) to confirm that they accept Certified True Copies certified by a Singapore Chartered Accountant. Requirements can vary, and we do not determine or guarantee the recipient’s acceptance criteria.
Which Documents Can Be Certified?
We frequently certify NRIC (front and back), Passports (photo and signature pages), Employment Pass (EP), Work Permit (WP) and Utility bills or bank statements (as proof of address).
Just make sure your full name and address appear clearly on the document, this helps prevent any confusion when you’re submitting them to different agencies.
