| Question 1 : |
| Do I need to register my online business which deals with setting up websites for companies to sell their products? If yes, will the business have to be registered as a limited liability company. What are the licence requirements? |
| |
| Reply : |
| All online businesses must be registered. The business can either be registered as: |
- A sole trader or partnership under the Registration of Businesses Act 1956 (ROBA); OR
- Incorporate a limited liability company as a vehicle to carry on the business.
|
| If you choose to register under ROBA, you can do so yourself by visiting the Companies Commission of Malaysia 's (SSM) website and access SSM's e-lodgment service. |
| If you choose to incorporate a company, you are advised to seek the services of a company secretary who can also perform the incorporation process online via SSM's e-lodgement service on your behalf. |
| Licence requirements will depend on the type of goods or services you wish to offer online and are subjected to requirements of the relevant authorities |
| For further queries, please contact SSM officials at 03-40476000 or visit SSM website at www.ssm.com.my |
