The Professional Engagement Letter is a crucial document used in Malaysian business practice to formalize professional service relationships. It serves as the primary agreement between professional service providers and their clients, whether individuals or organizations. This document is essential when engaging professionals such as consultants, accountants, lawyers, or other service providers in Malaysia. The letter typically includes detailed information about service scope, fees, timelines, confidentiality, and professional standards, while ensuring compliance with Malaysian legislation including the Contracts Act 1950 and relevant professional regulations. Professional Engagement Letters are particularly important in Malaysia's business environment as they provide clarity and legal protection for both parties while meeting local regulatory requirements.
