Opening a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)

I Registered an LLP Because I Wanted to Grow My Business Further

What is the Process to Open a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)?

Thus began my new business story in 2019, after failing and having to close one of my LLPs in 2016. So, because of my own experience of opening a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), I want to share why and how I opened and registered the LLP with my business partner.

Before I start, I believe many are interested in choosing the Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) entity over Private Limited (Sdn Bhd) because it is more economical because you do not need to hire a company secretary and do not need to do an audit, but still have almost the same advantages as an Sdn Bhd.

For those who do not know what an LLP is, a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), is a new business entity that combines the characteristics of a company and a conventional partnership. If you want to know more about the advantages and why I opened an LLP, compared to Sdn. Bhd, you can read it at this link.

For information, LLP registration can also be done by yourself without having to get help from others and you can get savings of up to RM1,600 if you do it yourself, or DIY “Do-it-Yourself”. For most new businesses or “startups”, RM1,600 is still quite a large value to be saved.

LLP Registration Can Be Done From Home

LLP registration can be done online and entirely from home. You can also present yourself at the nearest Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) office. They will help you to use the same system on the computer provided for the registration process. However, at the SSM office, you have to wait for a queue number to use the computer and it is quite uncomfortable to do it in a crowd. It is best that you do it at home or in your own office.

Although LLP registration can be done entirely online, you still need to present yourself at the nearest SSM office for the verification process of your account before you can register the LLP. I will briefly explain the steps and process of LLP registration as below:

  1. Visit the MyLLP portal and “Create Account”.
  2. Select “Verified User” in “User Type”. As an individual, only “verified users” can register their own LLPs.
  3. After registering a “user account”, you will receive a registration email and will be asked to present yourself at the SSM office to verify the account.
  4. Make a copy of the registration email and go to SSM. The officer on duty will ask for an identity card and perform fingerprint verification. Once completed, you can leave the SSM office.
  5. Start LLP registration. Go to “Starting a LLP” and select “Register Local LLP”, then “Direct Registration” and “Register LLP”.
  6. Fill in the form with the relevant information.
  7. You do not need to do “Local Name Registration” because you will waste money if you do it. Before starting this process, you already have an idea of what business name you want to use.
  8. Make a registration payment of RM500 and submit the application.
  9. The application will be reviewed and if there are no problems, your application will be approved within a few days. You will receive an email once the application is approved.
  10. Once approved, you can buy a copy of the business certificate and Current Profile. These two documents are required for bank account opening.

It looks easy, but there are some other important things that you need to do correctly. This writing aims to give you an idea of the important processes before you can complete the LLP registration either at the SSM office or through your own personal computer.

    Cost of Registration or Establishment of LLP by Agent

    To do the LLP registration process yourself, the cost is around RM500 (LLP Registration Fee at SSM) to RM600. So, I was quite surprised when there were agencies or company secretaries who charged up to RM2,000 to RM2,500 to do this process.

    With a cost of RM2,500, I believe many are willing to do it themselves.
