Yes they do. I send USD directly to IBKR via Maybank.

Same here suspecting similar to the post above. You used Instarem for the transfer above too right? Cuz in IBKR FAQ they listed
"IBKR accepts a variety of electronic transfer methods, which vary by the currency type and local payment systems. PayPal, Skrill, WorldPay, Instarem, Western Union, MoneyGram, Citibank Global Transfers and Online Peer to Peer payment systems (e.g., Venmo, Google Wallet, Zelle, Neteller, QuickPay & Square Cash) are not supported."
Curious if they don't officially support it but they would credit anyways with extra review. I'm using IBKR btw and not whitelabels

Hi just registered and so far still waiting for approval.
"Fund your account" still pending
while "Confirm Mobile Number" & "Submit A Document To Verify Your Residential Address" COMPLETED.

Got an email from them this morning, asking me to check "Message Center" for a ticket.

But where do you access "Message Center"?

This is the email I received
And this is my page when I login.
But I dont see any help link or Support Menu option?? 

Hi folks, has anyone tried setting up the withdrawal steps for IBKR to Malaysia banks?
I am wondering about the fees incurred, and if there's a better way to do it (no SG account)
Also, we have to provide a correspondent information for the selected bank to withdraw back to?

Go deposit money in. They prioritise those who put money in.
Few days after deposit still not approved, email them. You can find their customer service email in this thread.

Yeah deposited since Monday.
Thought something happened or not approved.
Only this morning Transferwise status changed to "Your transfer's complete"
But might take another "2 working days"....

Money takes few days to arrive.

Looks like you opted for third-parties (e.g. Instarem/Transferwise etc) to place your first deposit.
This makes it harder for them to verify your identity.
I suggest you email them next Monday if still no progress.

Will it be the same for every deposit or just the first? 
So troublesome

Hi everyone,
I have an IKBR account, and I tried buying Irish-domiciled ETFs. But sadly the IKBR commission was 5USD per ETF (from LSE), even when it was just 1 or 2 units That's much more than the US-domiciled ETFs (1USD). Can anyone tell me the commission fee for ETFs such as VDEV and IGLO at Tradestation? Thanks!

i see. i will go with this path then

remittance - instarem(MYR) -> SG CIMB FastSaver(SGD) -> IBKR (SGD) -> IBKR (convert USD/HKD)
withdraw - IBKR (convert SGD) -> IBKR(SGD) -> SG CIMB FastSaver(SGD) -> (MYR)To find out more

Hi Bros around,

May I know how we Malaysian can open a CIMB acc in SG? Do we need go sg to open CIMB sg acc personally? Do need any supporting doc or only with passport as I don't stay at sg?

Please help advise. Thanks

Edit: Removed personal info
Just an update. My transactions went through. Both Instarem and Transferwise.

Yes. No need. CIMB SG only ask for IC if I recall correctly but you need to have CIMB MY account. They don't required you to live in SG.

Read this dedicated thread for SG bank accounts then ask there if you have questions:

Sorry how do you deposit USD through instarem and transferwise using Malaysia bank account? '

Do I select the wire transfer option?

Hi,

Means I had to go SG personally to open an account there? Just bring IC/PASSPORT enough? Correct for my understanding?

i see, without live data it will be delay? normally you guys all buy live data? or which platform is user friendly?
I play to trade shares for US / SG

Thanks for the update Yggdrasil. As of now it's been 48 hours and still no news from IBKR. Had to approach customer support to expedite it.

I noticed the rate for TW is actually better than Instarem now. I'll probably make another transaction via them instead.
