Ministry of Finance (MOF) Registration
Also known as: MOF registration, Kementerian Kewangan registration
MOF registration is the Malaysian Ministry of Finance certification that a company needs to supply goods or services to the government and many government-linked bodies.
Companies wishing to participate in Malaysian government procurement must generally be registered with the Ministry of Finance (Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia). Registration confirms the supplier meets defined criteria and is eligible to bid for and be awarded government contracts within the categories it is registered for.
For buyers in the public sector and government-linked companies, dealing with MOF-registered suppliers is often a compliance requirement. Lapasar is a Ministry of Finance-registered supplier, which supports procurement by organisations that require it.
