Common questions about company secretarial engagements

Yes. Under the Companies Act 2016, every company incorporated in Malaysia must appoint at least one company secretary within 30 days of incorporation. The company secretary must be a natural person who is a member of a prescribed professional body or licensed by SSM.
Timelines depend on name availability, document readiness, and SSM processing times. We confirm an estimated timeline once your name search and KYC documents are complete.
Yes. We coordinate a formal handover with your outgoing company secretary, including transfer of statutory registers, resolutions, and filing history, and lodge the change of secretary with SSM.
Yes, subject to our know-your-client and due diligence process. Nominee arrangements are documented under a formal agreement that sets out roles, responsibilities, and limits of authority.
XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) is the format SSM requires for lodging financial statements. Applicability depends on your company's category; we confirm your filing obligation as part of onboarding.
Typically: proposed or existing company details, director and shareholder particulars, identification documents, and, for existing companies, your latest statutory records from the outgoing secretary.
Most ongoing work is billed under an annual retainer covering statutory filings and register maintenance, with incorporation, restructuring, and ad hoc advisory work quoted separately. Contact us for an indicative quote.
