There are plenty of reasons why one might choose to set up a company in Malaysia. The country has experienced growth year on year for decades and was given an outstanding score of 12 by the World Bank in 2019 for ease of doing business – a figure topped by very few countries. Below are some of the reasons you might consider Malaysia when setting up a company:

Low Corporate Tax Rate

Especially when forming a new business, a favourable tax rate is incredibly important. In Malaysia, companies with paid-up capital less than RM2.5 million are taxed 17% for the first RM600,000, and 24% for anything thereafter. The Malaysian government also introduces a series of tax exemptions yearly that, depending on the nature of your business, could be hugely beneficial.

Companies can be 100% foreign owned

Some countries have stipulations with regards to foreign ownership. However, companies in Malaysia can be 100% foreign owned. In addition, while Malay is the official language, English is widely spoken in business settings making the entire company formation process and running a business in Malaysia as a foreigner far easier.

Plenty of government support & attractive policies

The Malaysian government is well aware that foreign investment, among many other sectors, is crucial to Malaysia positioning itself as a global economic powerhouse. The formation and registration process for Sdn. Bhd. companies, especially with the help of BoardRoom, is made easy, while 76 active double taxation agreements, easy access to capital funding, and other such support from the government make for promising prospects.
