Mandatory Regulation

What Is an
AJL License?

An AJL License (Lesen Jualan Langsung) is an official permit issued by the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN).

"Holding an AJL License proves your company operates legally, ethically, and transparently, giving customers and distributors confidence in your brand."

It is required for any business involved in:

Direct selling
Multilevel marketing (MLM)
Referral-based or affiliate-driven sales
Commission or network reward structures

Why Your Business Needs an AJL License

Under the Direct Sales and Anti-Pyramid Scheme Act 1993, compliance is not optional — it's mandatory. Whether you call it an MLM license Malaysia or a direct sales license, if your business operates a network-based commission model, KPDN registration and approval is required by law.


You MUST apply if you:

Recruit members/agents for commission
Sell via referral, affiliate, or downline structure
Give bonuses based on member or downline sales
Use multi-tier or network marketing models

Operating without it leads to:

Legal penalties & warnings
Company blacklisting by KPDN
Forced shutdown of operations
Loss of brand trust

If your business pays commissions through a network — you legally need an AJL License.

Who Should Apply for an AJL License?

This service is perfect for businesses ready to scale legally and sustainably.

MLM & Network Marketing Companies
Any company running a Binary, Unilevel, or Hybrid plan that pays distributor commissions requires an MLM license Malaysia before legally recruiting members.
Referral-Based or Affiliate Programs
If your business rewards members for bringing in new customers or agents, KPDN classifies this under direct selling — and a direct sales license is mandatory.
Beauty & Health Supplement Brands
Malaysia's largest MLM sector. If your brand distributes through agents or downlines, your AJL License Malaysia application should be filed before your first product launch.
Product-Based Direct Selling Companies
Companies selling physical products through a distributor network — regardless of plan type — fall under the Direct Sales Act and require a valid direct sales license.
Online Direct Selling (E-commerce + MLM)
Hybrid e-commerce and MLM models are increasingly common. KPDN's regulations apply to online operations too — an MLM license Malaysia is still required.
Startups planning a commission-based model
Starting right matters. Apply for your AJL License Malaysia during the planning stage to avoid launch delays and legal risk once you begin recruiting.

If your business pays commissions or bonuses through a network — you fall under AJL requirements.
