To ensure a high level of security for your account, we will require the following information to effect a change of the name listed on your BEAM account. This applies to all accounts, regardless of country, account type, or plan.
Please note that the individual or company listed will be considered the account-holder, and will have complete control of the account, including scheduling pick ups and deliveries, billing, etc.
The requested documentation may be sent via e-mail to cs@beamspace.com or by post to your local BEAM Space office.
What every transfer requires
Every account transfer — whether between two individuals, two companies, or an individual and a company — requires all of the following:
1. A signed letter of request, which must include:
The current name and contact details listed on the account
Your BEAM Customer Number
A clear statement of your request: that the account be transferred, the exact name of the new account-holder, and any changes to contact or billing details
The new account-holder's acceptance of the BEAM Space Terms and Conditions, and acceptance of liability for any amounts owing on the account
Any other changes requested (e.g. the name to be listed on the account, contact details, billing address, etc.)
2. Government-issued identification for both the outgoing and incoming account-holder:
Singapore: NRIC (for citizens and PRs), or work pass and passport (for foreigners)
Malaysia: MyKad (for citizens and PRs), or work pass and passport (for foreigners)
Where a party is a company, provide the identification of the individual authorised to sign on the company's behalf (see below).
3. The full name and signature of both the outgoing and incoming account-holder — or, where a party is a company, of its authorised signatory.
Additional requirements when a company is involved
If either the outgoing or incoming account-holder is a company, the following are required in addition — for each company that is a party to the transfer:
The letter must be on that company's official letterhead and bear the company stamp.
The letter must state the full name and title/designation of the person signing on the company's behalf.
That person must confirm they are authorised by the company to make the request, and provide documentation evidencing that authority — for example, a copy of the ACRA BizFile document (Singapore) or SSM company profile (Malaysia).
Which requirements apply to my transfer
Individual to individual: the common requirements only.
Individual to company: the common requirements, plus the company requirements for the incoming account-holder.
Company to individual: the common requirements, plus the company requirements for the outgoing account-holder.
Company to company: the common requirements, plus the company requirements for both parties.
Important notes
Changes in account ownership do not affect any other aspect of the account, including billing. You may therefore wish to ensure that any payment arrangements — including but not limited to GIRO — are cancelled or amended before the transfer takes effect.
Any change in account ownership is entirely at the discretion of BEAM Space. We may, at our sole discretion, investigate further, request additional documentation, institute a change in credit terms, and/or reject any requested change.
Special cases
Some situations are not covered by the above — for example, transferring an account after the account-holder has passed away, which requires different documentation (such as a death certificate and a grant of probate or letters of administration). In these cases, please contact our Customer Service team at cs@beamspace.com before submitting any documents, and we will advise you on the requirements that apply.
