Frequently asked questions

Why does my Sdn Bhd need a licensed company secretary?

It’s a statutory requirement under the Companies Act 2016 — every Sdn Bhd must appoint one within 30 days of incorporation, and the role carries ongoing statutory filing responsibilities.

Can you take over from our current company secretary?

Yes. We regularly take over statutory records from an outgoing secretary, including remediating gaps in registers or filings left behind.

Do we need to hold a physical AGM every year?

Not necessarily — private companies can dispense with AGMs by written resolution under the Companies Act 2016, though the underlying annual filings with SSM are still required.
