Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about what licenses your business needs, how long the approval process takes, and whether foreigners can apply for a business license in Malaysia.
The licenses required for your business depend on the industry and nature of your operations. Generally, businesses in Malaysia need a Company Registration (SSM license), Business Premise License, and Signboard License from the local authority. Additional licenses, such as industry-specific permits (e.g., construction, food & beverage, finance), may be required.
The processing time varies depending on the type of license and the approving authority. Basic business registrations (SSM) can be completed within a day, while local council business licenses typically take 1 to 4 weeks. Industry-specific licenses may require several months, depending on the approval process.
Yes, foreigners can apply for a business license in Malaysia, but they must register a private limited company (Sdn. Bhd.) with at least one local director. Certain industries may require additional approvals from regulatory bodies, and full foreign ownership is restricted in some sectors. It is advisable to check with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) and relevant authorities for specific requirements.
