Why Malaysia asks for a legalised list of directors
Foreign registries, banks and partners often ask for an official list of your company's directors and authorised signatories, to check who controls and represents the company. The list of directors is issued on company letterhead and certified by a director or practising Company Secretary, usually matching the MCA master data.
Companies entering Asian markets usually need legalised incorporation and authority documents to register a subsidiary, office or local partner.
In Malaysia, a legalised list of directors is typically requested for company and branch registration; it is also used for bank KYC and tender and supplier due diligence.
A list of directors issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the High Commission of Malaysia in New Delhi.
Malaysia is not an apostille country, so commercial documents need Malaysia High Commission legalisation after MEA attestation.
