02 — Practice

Specialists, not generalists.

A focused compliance practice — Customs, LMW, AEO, SST. We don't dabble; this is what we do, all day, every day. No bookkeeping, no audit-only engagements, no generalist consulting.

These four areas determine whether your goods move and your duty bill is correct. That is where our depth lives.

07 — FAQ

Frequently asked.

What is LMW and who qualifies?

A Licensed Manufacturing Warehouse (Pergudangan Berlesen) lets eligible manufacturers store and process imported raw materials with duty deferred or exempted. It typically suits export-oriented manufacturers in approved sectors. We assess eligibility and run the full Section 65/65A application.

How long does AEO certification take in Malaysia?

Most AEO certifications take several months from internal readiness to issuance, depending on documentation, internal controls, and Kastam scheduling. We compress that timeline by pre-auditing your processes before submission.

Do I need SST registration if my turnover is below the threshold?

Not always — but voluntary registration, exemptions for raw materials, and accurate tariff classification can materially change your duty position. We review your goods and operations before recommending a posture.

What's the difference between bonded and non-bonded warehouse?

A bonded warehouse holds dutiable goods with duty suspended until release; non-bonded does not. We advise on which fits your supply chain and assist with facility sourcing and licensing.

Can you handle Kastam audits and disputes?

Yes. We prepare you for routine audits, represent you during reviews, and assist with appeals and voluntary disclosures where appropriate.

Do you serve clients outside Johor?

Yes. We are based in Johor Bahru but engage with clients across Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia. Site visits are arranged as needed.
