Why is it essential to have company documents in hand?
There are a few reasons why a company must have its documents in hand. Perhaps the most important reason is that it provides evidence of the company’s existence. In addition, having the documents also allows the company to exercise its rights and privileges under Malaysian law. For example, a company can only enter contracts or borrow money if it has valid documentation. Finally, having the documents also makes it easier for the company to be registered with relevant authorities.
