Enquire via WhatsApp →The right structure depends on your business goals, number of partners and liability requirements. A Sole Proprietorship / Enterprise is simplest but your personal assets are not protected. A Sdn Bhd separates personal and business liability, is more credible with clients and banks, and is the preferred choice if you plan to grow, hire staff or take on investors. An LLP sits between the two — simpler compliance than Sdn Bhd, but with limited liability protection.
For most entrepreneurs starting a real business, Sdn Bhd is recommended. We can advise on your specific situation during a preliminary call.
Read our full guide on choosing business structure →Annual compliance costs depend on your company's activity level. As a general guide: a dormant company costs approximately RM3,350/year; a startup with annual turnover around RM250k costs around RM8,300/year; a growing company at ~RM500k turnover costs approximately RM12,100/year. These cover accounting, audit, tax filing, annual return, CoSec and statutory submissions.
Our Resource Centre has a detailed breakdown. For a figure tailored to your business, this is best discussed in a meeting.
Read our annual compliance cost guide →Salary is deductible against company income (reduces corporate tax) but is subject to personal income tax and EPF/SOCSO contributions. Dividends are paid from after-tax profits and are currently tax-exempt in Malaysia for the recipient.
The optimal mix depends on your personal income bracket and the company's profitability. This varies significantly between individuals — a proper tax planning consultation is the right approach here, not a generic answer. The potential tax savings usually far exceed the cost of the consultation.
Book a tax planning meeting →Immediately after registration, you should: open a corporate bank account (we provide the required resolution), register for Income Tax (mandatory for all Sdn Bhd including dormant ones), register for EPF and SOCSO if you have employees, appoint an auditor, and fix your financial year-end.
Our Complete and Premium packages cover all statutory registrations. Essential and Standard packages can add these individually.
Read our post-registration checklist →For standard packages, incorporation documents are prepared within a few business days after we receive complete information and payment. SSM processes registration after document submission.
The Expedited Processing Service (+ RM500 for Essential/Standard/Complete, included in Premium) prioritises your order — documents ready for signing within 1 business day, submitted to SSM within 1 business day of receiving signed documents.
Read our full registration procedures →Very low initial prices typically exclude items that are essential to completing registration — First Board Resolutions, bank account opening resolutions, e-Certificate of Incorporation, 1st year company secretary services, and annual return filing. These are commonly charged separately, and the cumulative add-ons can range from RM980 to RM2,000 extra.
As a reference point, the SSM government registration fee alone is RM1,010 — any package advertised below this figure should prompt questions about what is and is not included.
See our full value and pricing comparison →Both offer limited liability protection, but they differ in compliance requirements and structure. A Sdn Bhd is regulated under the Companies Act 2016, requires a statutory audit, and is perceived as more credible for external dealings. An LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) has lighter compliance obligations, does not require a statutory audit, and is typically preferred by professional practices and smaller partnerships.
Yau & Co. registers and supports both. The right choice depends on your industry, number of partners, and growth plans.
