Timber Logging And Trading Companies in Malaysia

The Malaysian timber industry is an important contributor to the country’s economy, with the sector generating RM17.6 billion (US$4.6 billion) in revenue in 2016. Timber logging and trading companies play a significant role in the industry, with many of them operating in the country’s tropical forests.

The Malaysian timber industry is highly regulated, with the government imposing a number of restrictions on logging and timber trading activities. These restrictions are designed to protect the country’s forests, which are an important source of income for the timber industry.

The government requires that all timber logging and trading companies obtain a licence from the Malaysian Timber Industry Board (MTIB). The licence must be renewed every three years and allows the company to log a maximum of 2,000 hectares of forest Reserve per year.

The government also imposes a quota on the amount of timber that can be logged from each forest Reserve. This quota is based on the area of the forest Reserve and the type of forest.
