Foreign business ownership
Own and control 100% of your company as a foreigner.
As a general rule, foreigners are allowed to own 100% of a company registered in Malaysia by forming a local company or registering a foreign entity in Malaysia. In certain cases, however, such as operating in education, banking and finance, agriculture or tourism industries, companies face stricter rules and require local Malay co-ownership (at least 30% of the capital) and other requirements may apply, such as higher minimum paid up capital and WRT license.
Company registration process
Simple steps to starting your new business.

1. We will conduct a name search
The first step to registering a new company in Malaysia is conducting a name search. Its purpose is to determine whether the proposed company name is available.
2. We will draft and submit your registration documents
Registration documents must be prepared and submitted to SSM no later than one month after receiving the approval for the proposed company name. Failing to meet this window will result in having to go back to the previous step and conduct a new name search.
3. Receiving certificate of registration
A successful submission ends with receiving a certificate of registration issued by SSM. Your company is then ready to operate.
