What is an MSIC code and how do I choose one?
MSIC codes are Malaysia's standard classification of business activities. On the Superform you select up to three codes plus a business description of up to 200 words. The codes matter beyond statistics: banks check them against your stated activity, and some licences and government registrations (like MOF) depend on having the right ones.

Pick codes that match what you will genuinely do — a mismatch between MSIC, your invoices and your bank profile is a common reason corporate account applications stall.
We choose the codes with you at incorporation, looking one step ahead to banking and any licence or tender registrations you plan.
