                  Did you know?

                  Malaysia's economy has improved at a 5.4 percent annual rate since 2010, and it is expected to transition from an upper middle-income economy to a high-income economy by 2024.

                  Malaysia has a newly industrialised market economy that is open and state-oriented. Malaysia's economy is strong and diverse, with high-tech exports valued at US$92.1 billion in 2020, the second highest in ASEAN.

                  An Overview On Incorporating a Company In Malaysia

                  In Malaysia, creating a business has relatively lax procedures. You can register your business here even if foreigners own it totally. In Malaysia, a firm with 100 percent foreign ownership is known as a Sendirian Berhad company. Selected specialised industries have been classified by the Malaysian government as being only suitable for 100 percent foreign ownership.

                  By combining with a local company or registering the foreign firm with the Companies Commission of Malaysia, a foreigner can open a business in Malaysia.

                  Benefits of Setting up a Business in Malaysia

                  • Low Corporate Tax

                    Malaysia is yet another Asian country with a low corporate tax rate

                  • Simpler & Inexpensive

                    The new Companies Act 2016 makes registering a company in Malaysia simpler and less expensive. Not only is the registration process easier, but there are other changes that apply to Malaysian businesses.

                  • Best Workforces:

                    Malaysia has one of the best workforces in Asia, with lower costs than the rest of the region.

                  • Multiple Languages:

                    That many Malaysians, particularly the younger generation, are fluent in multiple languages.

                  • Strategic Location:

                    Malaysia's strategic location serves as a gateway to the 667.3 million-strong ASEAN population.

                  • Trade Agreements:

                    Malaysia has signed a number of free trade agreements.

                  How Zolvit Helps You to Incorporate a Company in Malaysia

                  Forming a company in Malaysia entails the following steps:

                  Step 1: Zolvit Helps to Complete The Application

                  The owner of a business must apply for the company's registration with the Registry of Companies. And yes, we will help you by completing the application on your behalf.

                    Step 2: Help You to Get the Right Name for Your Company

                    We will conduct a name search with the Malaysian Companies Commission (SSM).

                      Step 3: Singing the Relevant Forms

                      And once the company name has indeed been authorised, you should sign the relevant forms.

                        Step 4: Documents Delivery Will be Done

                        Once your company is ready, the documents will be delivered to SSM.

                          Step 5: Certificate Issuing Will Be Done

                          SSM would then issue you a certificate of incorporation, and your business will be up and running.

                            FAQ's

                            Your company can normally be incorporated in 2 to 3 working days, pending SSM approval. After your business has been incorporated, you will get the Notice of Registration and Certificate of Incorporation.
                            The protection of owners' personal assets is one of the main justifications for incorporation of enterprises. Your company becomes a distinct legal entity after you incorporate. As a result, your firm can amass assets and liabilities apart from your personal assets and liabilities.
                            A company's only shareholder and director may be the same person. Alternatively, a corporation may, both at the moment of its founding and at any time afterwards, have more than one director and shareholder.
                            Company directors, many of whom are also shareholders, are typically paid by their companies. For tax purposes, a director is essentially an employee, so the company must register for PAYE and pay Employer's National Insurance contributions (NIC)
                            Economic stability,Malaysia's strategic location, solid infrastructure, skilled workers, social stability, and low cost structure all contribute to a competitive investment climate. Malaysia is a significant and expanding market for high-end products.
                            Foreigners are not permitted to register LLP companies, sole proprietorships, or businesses in Malaysia; these entities are only available to Malaysians.
