Do my documents need to be certified for a Labuan company?

Usually yes. The Labuan trust company that files your company runs its own checks and normally asks for passport and address copies certified by a lawyer, notary or accountant. Malaysia is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so where documents from abroad must be legalised, we tell you which route the trust company accepts before you start.
