Yes, under UBBL By-Law 34A and MS 1184:2014. While enforcement has been uneven, the 2026 PwD Act amendments are set to strengthen penalties and requirements. Early compliance reduces risk and demonstrates social responsibility.
Australian standards (NCC, Premises Standards, AS 1428, and NDIS SDA) are highly prescriptive with detailed design categories and performance solutions. MS 1184:2014 aligns closely with universal design principles and can be enhanced using Australian best practices. We specialize in translating proven Australian approaches into practical, locally compliant Malaysian solutions.
The amendments are expected to introduce enforceable accessibility standards, time-bound compliance periods, penalties for violations, and stronger participation rights for persons with disabilities. Building owners and developers should start with independent audits and compliance roadmaps now to avoid rushed retrofits later. Our team can help you prepare proactively.
MS 1184:2014 is the Malaysian Standard for Universal Design and Accessibility in the Built Environment. It provides detailed guidelines for making buildings inclusive for people with disabilities, the elderly, and all users. Compliance helps meet UBBL By-Law 34A requirements and prepares for stronger enforcement under the upcoming PwD Act amendments. Non-compliance risks delays in approvals, legal issues, and missed opportunities for truly inclusive spaces.
