Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Our Services

How long does company incorporation typically take in Malaysia?

Standard registration with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) can often be completed within 1 to 3 working days once all documents are in order. The full process — including constitution preparation, shareholder agreement drafting, and post-incorporation filing — generally takes 5 to 10 working days with our involvement. Foreign investor applications may take slightly longer depending on the ownership structure.

What type of business entity is most appropriate for my situation?

This depends on your ownership structure, liability preferences, fundraising intentions, and operational scope. A Sdn Bhd (private limited company) is the most commonly used structure for businesses seeking limited liability and credibility with investors and banks. An LLP offers more operational flexibility with reduced administrative requirements. We review your specific circumstances before making a recommendation.

Can foreign nationals or non-resident investors form companies in Malaysia?

Yes. Malaysia welcomes foreign investment and allows full foreign ownership in many sectors under a Sdn Bhd structure. Certain industries may be subject to equity restrictions under sector-specific regulations. Our team guides foreign founders through the relevant requirements, including nominee director arrangements and any conditions attached to their particular industry.

How does the Corporate Governance Advisory engagement work?

The advisory engagement is structured on a retainer basis. Upon onboarding, we carry out an initial compliance review of your company's existing documentation and internal policies. From there, we provide quarterly written assessments, support board resolution drafting as needed, manage your annual return obligations, and monitor any regulatory changes that could affect your operations.

Is mediation always an option in shareholder disputes?

Mediation is typically the first approach we explore, as it tends to be more time-efficient and preserves working relationships where possible. However, each situation is different. Where shareholder agreements include arbitration clauses or where the dispute involves contested fiduciary responsibilities, we advise on the most appropriate path. Our aim is a structured resolution — not an extended proceeding.

What are your typical working hours and response times?

Our office is open Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM (MYT), excluding Malaysian public holidays. Enquiries submitted through the contact form or by email are typically acknowledged within one business day. For time-sensitive matters, we recommend calling our main line directly: +60 3-2781 4593.
