ROC Unit has prepared the necessary steps and arrangement internally to avoid business interruption and in the same ensuring regulatory compliance is met in the duration of the 14-day “restricted movement” as announced by the government. ROC Unit will have a continuous operation and communication during the duration of the CMCO between October 17 and 30 October 2020, amid the ongoing government effort to stem the spread of COVID-19.
ROC counter is closed during the CMCO period, hence the entire ROC Unit will be operating in the basis of work-from-home (WFH) under the normal working hours to ensure the COR@L business services remain unimpeded.
Additionally, offices of commissioner for oaths might be closed during this period. Trust Company may continue to submit their filing of application with unattested Form 6 Statutory Declaration of Compliance (SD) pertaining to new incorporation or any documentation that requires any form of attestation in COR@L system. Please attach the Letter of Undertaking as part of lodgement as an assurance that you will fulfill the obligation to file the signed attestation SD by a Commissioner for Oaths within two weeks after the end of CMCO. Labuan FSA has agreed to accept the signed copy of the SD without imposing any fee charges.
Please be informed that this special exemption is only valid during the CMCO due to restrictive access to Labuan FSA office, other services like third party company search, Certified True Copy of documents and ROC’s pigeon hole are not available during the period.
ROC Unit also would like to advise all trust companies to make the payment via online platform at COR@L or LEPAY for any other relevant applications as manual submission of cheque is temporarily suspended. In case of compliance difficulties, approaches should be made to ROC Unit as early as practicable.
Please send your enquiry to ROC@labuanfsa.gov.my should you have any further clarification.
Kindly be guided accordingly on this temporary measure and thank you for your kind cooperation.
