Why Malaysia asks for a legalised chamber or export council membership certificate
Membership of a chamber of commerce or an export promotion council shows that your business is an established, recognised exporter. Foreign buyers and authorities sometimes ask for the membership certificate or RCMC when registering suppliers. Membership certificates are issued by Indian chambers of commerce and export promotion councils (for example the RCMC).
Distributors and regulators in Asia often ask for legalised licences and registrations when approving a new Indian supplier.
Companies dealing with Malaysia are most often asked for a legalised chamber or export council membership certificate during supplier registration, as well as for tenders and exporter verification by buyers.
A chamber or export council membership certificate 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.
