For all company incorporation in Malaysia, the first process is to conduct a name search. This is to ensure the intended name is approved by SSM. For each name search, application is via Form 13A and fee of RM30. Result for the application will be available the next working day.


Once SSM approved the use of name, the next step is to submit the following documents to SSM:

Form 6 - Declaration of Compliance by the First Secretary.
Form 48A - Statutory declaration for persons appointed as directors. This is for the person to declare that he/she is fit to be a director.
Form 48F - Statutory declaration for persons appointed as company secretary. This is for the person to declare that he/she is fit to be a company secretary.
Form 13A - Copy of the Form 13A approved by SSM.
Copy of the SSM approval letter for name use.

Within 1 week from submitting the above documents, SSM will issue Form 9, which is the Certificate of Incorporation to the company (on condition that the above documents are completed correctly).
