When a business/company deregistered with the Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (SSM), it implies the business entity is no longer registered and has no legal standing since it’s not doing any business nor have assets or liabilities. There are two ways of closing down the Sdn Bhd Company:
Striking off a solvent company
Where the company has not been carrying on business or is not in operation and has no intention to carry on business in the future. The following conditions apply:
The company…- is not carrying on business or is not in operation
- has no assets and liabilities at the time when the application is made
- has no outstanding charges in the Registrar of Charges and Compounds
- has no outstanding tax or other liabilities with any Government Department
- and/or director are not involved in any legal proceedings within or outside Malaysia
- is not a holding company
- has not made any return of capital to the shareholders in the company
- is not a “Guarantor Corporation”. A “Guarantor Corporation” means a corporation that has guaranteed or has agreed to guarantee the repayment of any money received or to be received by any third party.

The process begins with appointing a liquidator that wind up the company’s affairs and to file the necessary notifications required under the Companies Act with SSM and Official Receiver
