SSM New vs. Old Forms Comparison Guide
Borang Has Been Revamped: Should You Use "Form" or "Section"?
Since the implementation of the Companies Act 2016, the official documents issued by SSM (Companies Commission of Malaysia) have changed. Now, company documents include both Forms (Old Format) and Sections (New Format). So how do you differentiate them?
________________________________________
How to Determine Whether Your Company Uses Forms or Sections?
First, you need to confirm under which Companies Act your company was registered:
✅ Companies Act 1965: Uses Forms (Old Format)
✅ Companies Act 2016: Uses Sections (New Format)

• Newly registered companies (after 2016) must use new forms (Sections), while older companies (registered under the 1965 Act) can still use old forms (Forms) but are encouraged to transition to the new format for compliance.
