A Company Secretary is a professional responsible for ensuring that a company complies with relevant laws and regulations. They act as the company’s legal representative, maintain company records, and ensure its administration is in order.
In Malaysia, a company secretary must be a natural person who is a member of a professional body recognised by the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs. The professional bodies recognised by the ministry include:
- The Malaysian Association of Company Secretaries (MACS).
- The Malaysian Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (MAICSA).
- The Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (ICSA).
Every company in Malaysia is required by law to designate a Company Secretary within 30 days of its incorporation. The Company Secretary must be appointed from a recognised professional body and have the necessary qualifications and experience to carry out their duties. The appointment must be filed with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (CCM) within 14 days of the appointment. Any changes in the appointment of the Company Secretary must also be notified to the CCM within 14 days. The procedures for appointment and notification are detailed on the CCM website.
Outsourcing your Company Secretary services in Malaysia can offer several benefits:
- Cost-effectiveness: Outsourcing eliminates the need for hiring a full-time in-house corporate secretary, saving on salaries, benefits, and office space.

- Flexibility: Outsourced services can be scaled up or down according to the company’s needs, providing flexibility as the business grows or changes.
