- ① Financial Statements submission: This refers to submission of audited or unaudited financial statements to SSM. External audit fees and preparation of unaudited financial statements are excluded from the package fee.
- ② Form CP204 submission: This refers to submission of the CP204 form to LHDN. You may engage us separately to prepare a provisional tax computation to estimate the tax payable. Newly incorporated companies and qualifying SMEs may be exempted from CP204 submission.
- ③ Paid-Up Capital: For paid-up capital above RM3,500, we recommend registering with a nominal amount first. Increasing paid-up capital after incorporation requires a separate submission — proof of deposit in the company bank account is required as evidence of the paid-up amount.

Your business needs more than registration
After your company is incorporated, accounting, tax, company secretarial and payroll obligations begin. Our integrated team can continue supporting your business as it grows — without you having to coordinate multiple service providers.
Accounting & Bookkeeping
We handle your day-to-day transaction recording, monthly reconciliation and management accounts, through to year-end financial statements preparation — keeping your records accurate and your business informed.
Enquire via WhatsApp →Tax Planning & Filing
Proactive tax planning tailored to your business and personal situation. We also manage all annual filings — corporate income tax returns, CP204 tax estimates, Form E and Form EA — accurately and on time.
Enquire via WhatsApp →Company Secretarial
All SSM statutory filings, board resolutions, maintenance of statutory registers and annual return submissions — managed by our qualified CoSec staff. We manage your statutory filings and secretarial obligations so your company stays on track.
Enquire via WhatsApp →Payroll Processing
Monthly payroll calculation and statutory submission — EPF, SOCSO/EIS, PCB (monthly tax deduction) and Form E. We handle your monthly payroll calculations and statutory submissions so your obligations are properly managed.
Enquire via WhatsApp →A Sole Proprietorship / Enterprise is the simplest to set up but offers no separation between your personal and business assets — you are personally liable for all business debts. A Sdn Bhd is a separate legal entity that protects your personal assets and is commonly chosen by businesses planning to expand, take on employees or seek external investment. An LLP also provides limited liability with lighter compliance requirements than a Sdn Bhd, and is often preferred by professional practices and small partnerships.
The right structure depends on your business goals, number of partners and long-term plans. We can guide you through the decision.
Read our full guide on choosing business structure →Both offer limited liability protection, but they differ in compliance requirements. A Sdn Bhd is regulated under the Companies Act 2016, requires a statutory audit (unless audit exemption applies) and is generally perceived as more credible with banks, clients and government bodies. An LLP has lighter annual compliance obligations and does not require a statutory audit — however it still has annual compliance obligations including annual declaration and tax filing.
The right choice depends on your industry, number of partners and growth plans. Yau & Co. registers and supports both.
Read our full Sdn Bhd vs LLP comparison →Annual compliance costs depend on your company’s activity level. As a general guide:
- ●Dormant company — approximately RM3,350/year
- ●Startup (annual turnover ~RM250k) — approximately RM8,300/year
- ●Growing company (~RM500k turnover) — approximately RM12,100/year
These cover accounting, financial statements, tax filing, annual return, CoSec and statutory submissions.
Illustrative estimates only. Actual fees depend on transaction volume, bookkeeping condition, audit requirements, tax complexity, number of employees and other factors.
Read our annual compliance cost guide →Based on our experience, the entire process averages 7 working days, broken down as follows:
① Company name reservation with SSM — approximately 24 hours
② Preparation of incorporation documents after name approval — 1–3 working days
③ Signing of documents by all directors & shareholders — depends on your availability
④ Submission to SSM — 1–2 working days
⑤ Notification of registration issued by SSM — 1 working day
With our Expedited Processing Service (included in Premium, available as add-on for other packages), steps ② and ④ are each reduced to 1 working day. The overall timeline is subject to the completeness and accuracy of information provided, and the availability of SSM’s MyCoID online system.
See full registration FAQ →After registration, you will need to open a corporate bank account, register for Income Tax (mandatory for all Sdn Bhd including dormant ones), register for EPF and SOCSO if you have employees, determine whether an auditor needs to be appointed taking into account applicable audit exemption requirements, and fix your financial year-end. Our Complete and Premium packages include all statutory registrations. Essential and Standard packages can add these individually.
Read our post-registration checklist →Yes. For paid-up capital above the package limit, we recommend starting with RM1 and increasing it after your corporate bank account is opened. This is because you will need to deposit the paid-up capital amount into the company bank account as proof — which requires the account to exist first. Increasing paid-up capital after incorporation requires a separate set of documents and is subject to an additional fee.
See full registration FAQ →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. The optimal mix between salary and dividends depends on your personal income bracket and the company’s profitability — the answer is different for every business owner. A proper tax planning consultation is the right approach here rather than a generic answer, as the potential savings can be significant.
Book a tax planning meeting →Very low initial prices typically exclude items that are essential to completing your registration — such as 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, the SSM government registration fee alone is above RM1,000 — any package advertised below this figure should prompt questions about what is and is not included.
