Incorporating in Malaysia
Shares may limit an incorporated company. It may also be limited by guarantee or it may be an unlimited company. A company is a separate legal entity created under the Companies Act of 2016. The Companies Act of 2016 governs the establishment process and overall operations of a company. The Companies Commission of Malaysia (CCM) regulates all business aspects. Most often, it takes approximately 1 to 2 weeks to incorporate a company or branch of a foreign organization. A company should have at least one director whose primary place of residence is in Malaysia.
The management control aspect of a company is usually vested in the board of directors, which holds fiduciary responsibility to the organization. Your company is required to have a locally registered office. It must keep its accounts and records physically in Malaysia. Each company must also have a secretary, whose principal place of residence is in Malaysia. Annual returns must be submitted annually to the CCM.
The Malaysian government strongly encourages that Malaysians are trained and employed at all levels within your organization. However, if there is a shortage of Malaysians trained for specific opportunities, companies are permitted to bring in expatriate personnel to fill positions.
