Articles of Organization establish the legal foundation for Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) in Singapore, similar to how Articles of Association work for private companies. This document outlines your LLC's basic structure, management setup, and operational rules.

When filing with ACRA (Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority), your Articles need to specify key details like the company name, registered address, business scope, and member rights. Think of it as your LLC's constitution - it creates the framework for how your business will run and protects members' interests under Singapore's Companies Act.

File your Articles of Organization when launching a new LLC in Singapore - it's a mandatory first step before you can start operations. Most businesses submit these documents during their initial ACRA registration, alongside their business name application and director appointments.

The Articles become especially important during major company changes, like adding new members, changing your business scope, or restructuring management roles. Having clear, well-drafted Articles helps prevent disputes between members and ensures smooth decision-making processes. They also protect your interests when dealing with banks, investors, or business partners.

Articles of Organization are often confused with Articles of Association, but they serve different legal purposes in Singapore's business landscape. While both documents establish company governance, they apply to different business structures and have distinct requirements.

• Business Structure: Articles of Organization are specifically for LLCs, while Articles of Association govern private limited companies and public companies
• Legal Framework: Articles of Association must follow Singapore Companies Act requirements more strictly, including mandatory provisions for share capital and director duties
• Flexibility: LLC Articles of Organization offer more flexibility in management structure and profit distribution arrangements
• Amendment Process: Changes to Articles of Association require shareholder approval and ACRA filing, while LLC Articles often allow simpler modification procedures
