About VIVOS Malaysia<\/h1>

VIVOS (M) Sdn. Bhd. is VIVOS Group\u2019s licensed Malaysian entity, helping founders and growing companies incorporate a Sdn Bhd, stay compliant with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), and run accounting, tax and immigration in-country \u2014 without needing a Malaysian office of their own.<\/p><\/div>

VIVOS Group serves each of its markets through a locally licensed entity rather than a referral partner. In Malaysia, that entity is VIVOS (M) Sdn. Bhd., registered with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) under registration No. 202501057568 (1658974-A) and based in Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>

Malaysia sits between Singapore\u2019s cost base and the wider ASEAN market, with a 24% standard corporate tax rate, an SST regime most non-Malaysian founders haven\u2019t dealt with before, and Employment Pass rules that were revised again in 2026. Our Malaysia practice is led by Amit Gandhi, who works with founders on company structuring as they set up or expand into Malaysia.<\/p><\/div>

Why incorporate in Malaysia<\/h2>

A regional base<\/h3>

Malaysia gives Singapore and regional businesses a lower-cost base with direct access to ASEAN, without giving up proximity to Singapore.<\/p><\/div>

One licensed entity, not a referral<\/h3>

VIVOS (M) Sdn. Bhd. is licensed and based in Kuala Lumpur, so incorporation, secretarial and tax filings are handled directly, not passed to a third party.<\/p><\/div>

Full-service in one place<\/h3>

Incorporation, corporate secretarial, accounting & tax and Employment Pass immigration are handled under one roof, coordinated with VIVOS\u2019s Singapore team where a business operates in both markets.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>
