• Preparation of Constitution and statutory resolutions.
• Application for IRB tax-exempt status.
• Ongoing secretarial retainer.

• Business plan preparation and supporting documentation.
• MIDA follow-up through to approval.

Nominee Director & Nominee Shareholder Services

Malaysian law requires that companies have at least one resident director ordinarily residing in Malaysia. Where foreign principals are unable to fulfil this requirement, our licensed nominee directors provide this service on a transparent, professionally structured basis.

• Provision of resident nominee director(s).
• Nominee shareholder arrangements with appropriate trust documentation.
• Nominee agreement, statutory declaration, and undated letter of resignation.

We provide our office address at Oval Damansara, Kuala Lumpur as your company's registered address for official SSM and regulatory purposes.
