Document background
An Engagement Letter For Consulting Services is a crucial document used when establishing a formal consulting relationship in Malaysia. It serves as the primary agreement between a consultant or consulting firm and their client, outlining the scope of work, deliverables, payment terms, and professional obligations. This document is essential for compliance with Malaysian legal requirements, including the Contracts Act 1950 and Service Tax Act 2018. It provides clarity on the nature of services, protects both parties' interests, and helps avoid potential disputes by clearly defining expectations, timelines, and deliverables. The letter is particularly important in the Malaysian business context, where professional services must be properly documented for regulatory compliance and tax purposes.
