The process for striking off a company in Malaysia varies depending on the legal entity. While sole proprietorships only require submission of form C and clear tax obligation, private limited (Sdn Bhd) and public (Berhad) companies require an extensive process.
1. Cease All Business Activities
Before applying for a strike off, you must have ceased all business activities. This includes notifying clients, shutting down operations, and stopping all transactions.
2. Clear Outstanding Obligations
In addition to ceasing business activities, you must ensure the company has settled all outstanding debts, taxes, and obligations with relevant authorities such as the Inland Revenue Board (IRB), Employees Provident Fund (EPF), and Social Security Organisation (SOCSO).
3. Obtain Directors’ and Shareholders’ Consent
A resolution must be passed by the board of directors and approved unanimously by all shareholders to proceed with the strike-off application.
4. Apply to SSM for a Company Strike Off
Once your company has ceased activities and cleared liabilities, the next step is to submit an application for strike off to SSM. Our experts will help you ensure all mandatory documents are in order, including:
• A completed strike off application form.
• A statutory declaration confirming cessation of business and settlement of liabilities.
• Letter of Request for Strike Off.
• Copies of your company’s latest financial statements.
• Tax clearance from the LHDN.
• Any other supporting documents as requested by SSM.
5. SSM Review and Objection Period
After submitting the application, the SSM will review the documents and verify your company’s eligibility for strike off.
This is followed by an objection period which lasts 30 days. During this time, creditors or other parties may raise objections to the strike off.
6. Official Public Notification
If there are no disputes or objections during the review period, the SSM publishes a public notification of your company’s strike off in the Federal Gazette. This serves as an official announcement of the company’s dissolution.
7. Final Dissolution
After publication in the Federal Gazette, your company is officially struck off the register, and ceases to exist as a legal entity. No further actions are required unless new issues arise, in which case the process may be reversed.
如何在马来西亚注销公司（Strike Off）
在马来西亚，公司注销程序会因企业类型不同而有所差异。
例如：
- 独资企业（Sole Proprietorship）：只需提交 Form C 并清除税务义务即可；
- 私人有限公司（Sdn Bhd） 与 公众有限公司（Berhad）：需要更完整且严格的手续。
在提交注销申请前，公司必须已经完全停止一切业务，包括：
- 通知客户
- 关闭运营
- 停止所有商业与财务交易
除了停止业务，公司还必须确保已结清所有债务与责任，包括：
- 税务（LHDN / IRB）
- 公积金（EPF）
- 社险（SOCSO）
- 供应商欠款及其他负债
公司必须通过董事会议决议（Board Resolution），并且 所有股东必须一致同意（Unanimous Consent） 才能进行注销申请。
当公司已停止运营并清除所有负债后，即可向 SSM（马来西亚公司委员会）提交注销申请。
以下是需准备的文件：
完整填写的注销申请表（Strike Off Application Form）
业务停止与负债清偿的法定声明（Statutory Declaration）
公司注销请求信（Letter of Request for Strike Off）
最新财务报表（管理账或审计账）
LHDN 税务清关信（Tax Clearance）
其他 SSM 所要求的补充文件
专业秘书公司可协助确保文件完整与合规。
SSM 在接获申请后，会进行资料审核并确认公司是否符合注销条件。
接着会进入 30 天的异议期，在此期间：
- 债权人
- 政府机构
- 任何相关方
若有任何异议，SSM 可能暂停或拒绝注销申请。
如果在异议期内没有收到任何反对意见，
SSM 将在 联邦宪报（Federal Gazette） 发布注销公告。
这项公告代表公司即将正式解散。
公告发布后，公司将从 SSM 的注册名录中正式被除名（Struck Off），此时：
公司不再具有法律实体地位
不再需要履行任何合规要求
不再需要提交税务或年度申报
除非事后出现重大问题，否则无需再采取任何步骤。
若未来因争议或税务问题需要恢复，SSM 也可批准重新激活公司（Reinstatement）。
