Keeyaa provides comprehensive assistance in incorporating Companies Limited by Guarantee (CLBGs)—the preferred structure for foundations, charitable organisations, and non-profit entities in Malaysia. Our process ensures compliance with the Companies Act 2016 and all relevant regulatory requirements.
To incorporate a CLBG in Malaysia, you must meet the following:
Typically 2–4 months, depending on the complexity of the constitution and ministry approval requirements.
Yes, but all income must be used to further the organisation’s non-profit objectives—no profits can be distributed to members.
Not always. Approval is only needed if your activities fall under a regulated sector such as education or healthcare.
A CLBG is registered under the Companies Act 2016 and has stricter reporting and governance requirements, while a society is registered under the Societies Act 1966.
Yes, but at least one director must ordinarily reside in Malaysia.
