Labuan Practice

What We Do

Our Labuan practice advises corporates, financial institutions, intermediaries, and private clients on legal and regulatory matters within the Labuan International Business and Financial Centre. We act on the establishment, maintenance, and governance of Labuan structures, including companies, limited partnerships, trusts, foundations, and sector‑specific entities involved in financing, leasing, captive insurance, and fund‑related activities.


The practice focuses on documentation, licensing, and ongoing compliance within the Labuan regulatory framework, including interactions with the Labuan Financial Services Authority and coordination with onshore Malaysian and foreign regimes where relevant. We support clients on the legal aspects of cross‑border structuring, intercompany arrangements, and substance and governance considerations as they relate to Labuan‑based operations. Our advice addresses the interface between Labuan entities and broader corporate, financing, and wealth planning objectives.

How We Can Assist You

We assist clients throughout the lifecycle of Labuan structures, from initial feasibility and choice‑of‑vehicle considerations through incorporation or registration, licensing applications where required, and the drafting of constitutional, governance, and transactional documentation. Our work includes advising on regulatory approvals, service provider engagement, and the alignment of operating policies and intercompany arrangements with applicable laws and regulatory expectations.


We also support ongoing compliance, including maintenance of statutory records, periodic filings, conduct and governance requirements, and updates to documentation to reflect regulatory developments or operational change. Where Labuan entities are part of wider corporate or investment arrangements, we coordinate with onshore counsel and foreign advisers to manage cross‑border legal issues. Throughout each engagement, we focus on clear documentation, regulatory alignment, and practical implementation within the Labuan framework.
