In Malaysia, the Certificate of Accommodation—locally referred to as Perakuan Penginapan—is a compulsory document for employers and centralized accommodation providers who house workers within their premises. Issued by the Department of Labour Peninsular Malaysia, this certification verifies that the living facilities meet the requirements outlined in the Employees’ Minimum Standards of Housing, Accommodation and Amenities Act 1990 (Act 446). By reinforcing consistent housing standards, the Certificate serves to safeguard employee wellbeing while promoting responsible and compliant practices for employers in Malaysia.
