SSM registration and the 12-digit number
Malaysian companies are registered by the Companies Commission of Malaysia (Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia, SSM). Since 11 October 2019 every company, business and limited liability partnership has a 12-digit registration number, and SSM showed the old number in brackets during the transition, as in 201901000005 (1312525-A). The first four digits give the year of registration. We copy both numbers exactly.
On incorporation SSM issues a notice of registration; a certificate of incorporation is issued only if the company applies and pays for one. So a Malaysian company may have no certificate at all, and the notice is the proof of registration. SSM also requires a company secretary to be appointed within 30 days of incorporation. The notice is translated in full, with its date and number.
Constitution, or memorandum and articles
Under the Companies Act 2016 a constitution is optional for a company limited by shares, which can rely on the Act's default rules; a company limited by guarantee must have one. Companies formed under the earlier law have a memorandum and articles of association, which SSM training material describes being replaced by a constitution. We translate whichever governing document you have.
These documents are often in English; English documents need no translation, and we translate any Malay pages or stamps. For use abroad, Wisma Putra attests documents, as Malaysia issues no apostille. See the Malaysian bank statement page and our Malay page. Directors' and shareholders' names and identity numbers are copied exactly as printed, since a bank or partner will check them against other records.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.
State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.
How it works
Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.
A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.
Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.
Certified vs. standard translation
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.
A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
