Mandatory Submission via MBRS 2.0 (XBRL) in Malaysia

Starting 1 December 2024, a new chapter in corporate reporting begins in Malaysia with the mandatory implementation of MBRS 2.0. The enhanced system by the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) requires all companies to file their annual financial statements digitally using the eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format.
 
What is MBRS 2.0?
MBRS 2.0 is a digital platform designed to streamline the submission of financial statements, annual returns, and exemption applications. The XBRL format facilitates the structured tagging of financial data, making data analysis and comparison more efficient.

MBRS 2.0 mandates the submission of the following documents in XBRL format:

1. Annual Returns (AR):
   • Effective Date: 25 September 2024
