An Affidavit of Loss is a sworn legal statement that helps you formally declare the loss, theft, or destruction of an important document or item in Malaysia. When you've misplaced crucial papers like share certificates, official receipts, land titles, or identification documents, this affidavit provides legal protection and helps you request replacements.

Malaysian law requires these declarations to be signed in front of a Commissioner for Oaths, who verifies your identity and the truthfulness of your statement. Banks, government agencies, and companies typically need this affidavit before they'll issue new copies of lost documents, making it an essential tool for protecting your interests and maintaining proper documentation.

You need an Affidavit of Loss immediately when important documents go missing in Malaysia. Common triggers include losing your passport, identity card, share certificates, land titles, academic certificates, or company registration documents. Filing this affidavit quickly helps prevent unauthorized use of your lost documents and starts the replacement process.

Banks and government agencies require this sworn statement before issuing replacements or processing related transactions. For example, if you've lost property documents, you'll need the affidavit to get new copies from the land office. Similarly, losing company documents means filing an affidavit before the Companies Commission of Malaysia will provide duplicates.
