Malaysia National Interpretation Public Consultation: 25 July 2025 – 24 September 2025

The RSPO National Interpretation (NI) draft of the 2024 RSPO Principles and Criteria (P&C) for Malaysia has been developed through a participatory, multi-stakeholder process, involving representatives from relevant RSPO membership sectors and consultations with other related stakeholders in Malaysia. The formation of the National Interpretation Task Force (NITF) for Malaysia ensures that all required procedures, communications and actions have been properly documented and recorded. This process aims to ensure that the NI accurately reflects the nature of the oil palm industry in Malaysia, particularly national legislation and local customs, while maintaining and strengthening the integrity of RSPO Certification requirements.

We are now calling for comments on the Malaysia NI 2025 draft through a public consultation period of 60 days, from 25 July to 24 September 2025. The draft is available in English and can be downloaded below.

You are invited to submit your feedback and comments on the draft with the comment template below. All comments must be submitted to the MYNI TF Secretariat at [email protected] by close of business on 24 September 2025.
