Compliance-focused practice.

Customs, LMW, AEO, SST — the four areas that determine whether your goods move and your duty bill is correct. We don't do bookkeeping, audit-only, or generalist consulting.

How we work

A clear path from first call to compliance.

01

Initial Consultation

A no-obligation conversation to understand your operations, current compliance state, and the outcome you need.

02

Compliance Assessment

We map your obligations against current practice and identify gaps, risks, and exemption opportunities.

03

Application & Implementation

We prepare submissions, liaise with Customs and LHDN, and put procedures in place to satisfy licence conditions.

04

Ongoing Advisory

Renewals, audits, training, and continuous advisory — so compliance stays a strength, not a fire drill.

FAQ

Common questions before we talk.

How long does an LMW license application take?

Timelines vary by facility type and how prepared your documentation is. As a guide, a well-prepared new LMW application typically takes 2–4 months from submission to approval. We front-load documentation so the queue at Customs becomes the only wait.

Do you handle Customs and SST audits?

Yes. We conduct internal audits of procedure compliance and represent you during external Customs and LHDN audits — preparing documentation, reconciling records, and clarifying findings before they become assessments.

Can you work with us remotely, or only on-site?

Both. Most advisory work is handled remotely with scheduled site visits for facility inspections, training, and audit support. Our Johor Bahru location makes on-site work across southern Malaysia practical and cost-effective.

How is pricing structured?

Engagements are quoted after the initial consultation, when we understand the scope. We use fixed-fee pricing for defined deliverables (e.g. an LMW application or AEO certification) and a monthly retainer for ongoing advisory and audit support.

Can reports and submissions be prepared in Bahasa Malaysia?

Yes. We work fluently in both English and Bahasa Malaysia — important when documents are reviewed by Customs and LHDN officers, and when training your team. Boleh juga kami sediakan laporan dan pembentangan dalam Bahasa Malaysia.

Do you handle licence renewals and ongoing reporting?

Yes — renewals, periodic reports, and ongoing compliance monitoring are part of our advisory retainer. We track your renewal dates and reporting obligations so you never face an avoidable expiry.
