QUICK ANSWER
What is withdrawal of striking off application in Malaysia?
Withdrawal of striking off application in Malaysia is the process of cancelling or stopping a previously submitted application to strike off a company from the SSM register. It is commonly needed when the company is still carrying on business, has a valid reason to continue existing, needs to complete compliance matters, or no longer wants to proceed with company closure.
QUICK OVERVIEW
A Striking Off Application Can Be Withdrawn When the Company Still Needs to Exist
A company strike off application is not always the final step. If the company's situation changes, the applicant may need to withdraw the application so the company can continue in existence. This may happen because the business becomes active again, shareholders change their decision, a bank or licence matter is still pending, a tax or accounting matter is unresolved, or the company needs to complete another corporate action before closure.
Main Purpose
To cancel or stop a submitted striking off application before the company is removed from the register.
Common Reason
The company is still carrying on business or has another reason to continue existing.
Legal Reference
Withdrawal is connected to Section 553 of the Companies Act 2016.
Best Handled By
Company secretary, director, shareholder, applicant, or corporate compliance specialist depending on the case.
Important: If a striking off application has already been submitted, do not ignore SSM notices or publication timelines. The company should review its status quickly and decide whether withdrawal, objection, correction, or continued closure is the right next step.

When Should You Withdraw a Striking Off Application?
A company may need to withdraw a striking off application when the original closure decision no longer matches the company's current situation.
Common Situations
The company is still carrying on business
The company plans to restart business activities
The directors or shareholders changed their decision
A bank account, loan, or payment issue is still pending
A tax, accounting, or LHDN matter is unresolved
The company has assets, liabilities, contracts, or obligations
A licence, tender, immigration, or investor matter requires the company to remain active
The company needs to update corporate records before deciding closure again
The strike off application was submitted too early or with incomplete review

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
Withdrawal of Striking Off Application Is Different from Objection to Strike Off
Many business owners confuse withdrawal and objection. They are related to the strike off process, but they are not the same action.
MatterWithdrawal of Striking Off ApplicationObjection to Strike Off
Who usually initiates itApplicant who wants to cancel the submitted strike off applicationPerson or party objecting to the company being struck off
Main reasonCompany still needs to continue or the applicant no longer wants strike offThere is a concern, claim, liability, dispute, or other ground to prevent strike off
Main purposeStop the application submitted by the applicantChallenge or object to the striking off process
Common exampleDirectors decide the company should remain activeCreditor, shareholder, or interested party objects
Service angleWithdraw or cancel the applicationFile objection with supporting grounds
Related statusCompany may continue after withdrawal if records and compliance are maintainedRegistrar reviews objection and supporting documents
If you are the applicant and your company should continue existing, withdrawal may be the relevant route. If another party wants to stop the company from being struck off because of a claim or unresolved issue, objection may be a different process.
COMMON REASONS
Why Companies Withdraw a Striking Off Application
A striking off application may be withdrawn for practical business, compliance, financial, or legal reasons.
Company Still Operating
The company is still carrying on business or has resumed business activities.
Business Plan Changed
Directors or shareholders decided to keep the company for future operations.
Pending Tax Matter
The company needs to resolve tax filing, tax estimation, tax clearance, or LHDN matters.
Pending Accounting Records
Accounts, financial statements, or supporting records are not fully settled.
Existing Assets or Liabilities
The company has assets, debts, obligations, contracts, loans, or commitments.
Bank or Payment Issue
A bank account, payment, refund, loan, or transaction is still active or pending.
Licence or Tender Matter
The company needs to remain active for licence, tender, government, or corporate verification.
Shareholder or Director Concern
A shareholder, director, or related party disagrees with closure or needs more time.
Corporate Action Needed
The company must update officers, shareholders, address, shareholding, or other records first.
BEFORE YOU WITHDRAW
Check the Company's Real Status Before Cancelling the Strike Off Process
Withdrawal should not be treated as a simple formality. Once the company remains active, it may need to manage ongoing statutory, accounting, tax, and corporate record obligations.
Withdrawing the strike off application means the company may continue to exist. After withdrawal, the company should not ignore annual compliance, tax filings, record updates, or corporate maintenance requirements.
Review Checklist
Is the company currently active or planning to restart business?
Is the company still maintaining a bank account?
Are there any unpaid debts, liabilities, contracts, or claims?
Are there outstanding tax filings or tax estimation matters?
Are accounting records complete and updated?
Are SSM annual returns or financial statements overdue?
Are directors and shareholders still accurate?
Is the registered address still valid?
Does the company still need a company secretary?
Are there licences, permits, tenders, or investor matters connected to the company?
Does the company still want to close later after resolving issues?
AFTER WITHDRAWAL
What Happens After a Striking Off Application Is Withdrawn?
After the withdrawal is accepted or processed, the company may continue to exist and may need to return to normal compliance management. The exact next steps depend on the company's status and why the withdrawal was needed.
Company Continues Existing
The company may remain on the register and continue its corporate existence.
Compliance Must Be Reviewed
Outstanding annual return, financial statements, tax, accounting, and secretary matters may need attention.
Records May Need Updating
Director, shareholder, address, secretary, share capital, or beneficial ownership records may need to be corrected.
Closure Can Be Reconsidered Later
If the company still wants to close in future, it should first resolve assets, liabilities, tax, accounting, and compliance issues.

AVOID THESE MISTAKES
Common Mistakes When Withdrawing a Striking Off Application
Problems often happen when companies treat withdrawal as a quick cancellation without reviewing the consequences.
Waiting Too Long
Delaying action after receiving notice or publication can make the situation more difficult.
Ignoring SSM Status
Companies sometimes do not check whether the strike off application is still pending, published, objected to, or already advanced.
Withdrawing Without Compliance Planning
If the company continues existing, annual compliance, tax, accounting, and corporate records may still need attention.
Not Checking Assets or Liabilities
A company with assets, debts, contracts, or claims should review its position carefully before closure or withdrawal decisions.
Confusing Withdrawal with Objection
Withdrawal is usually for the applicant cancelling the strike off application. Objection is a different route.
Poor Internal Communication
Directors, shareholders, company secretary, accountant, and tax agent should understand why the company is continuing.
The best withdrawal plan does not only stop the strike off process. It also prepares the company for what happens next.
