Quick answer
Our professional consultation service gives advice on corporate structure, licensing and compliance in Malaysia — which company structure fits, which licences and approvals apply, in what order, the documents and timelines involved, and the risks. It is charged per session or as a monthly retainer, and pricing depends on scope, so please contact us for a quote.

Overview
Many business questions in Malaysia do not have a one-line answer: whether a foreign company needs a WRT licence, whether a factory needs a MIDA licence, whether a CIDB grade is enough for a tender, or how an expatriate hire affects company capital. The answer depends on the facts, and the wrong assumption can cost months.
A consultation puts your facts in front of people who handle these applications daily — SSM, CIDB, local councils, immigration, JPK, MIDA, tax and more. We work out what applies to you, the sequence that avoids rework, the documents and timelines involved, and the realistic costs and risks.
Consultation is available per session for a specific question, or as a monthly retainer for companies that want an ongoing adviser on corporate and compliance matters. Because scope varies widely, pricing is quoted on request.
