ASEAN For Business Bulletin - November 2025 Unlocking ASEAN’s Digital Trade Potential Through a Unified Business Identity Framework

ASEAN For Business Bulletin - November 2025 highlights how the rollout of the Unique Business Identification Number of ASEAN (UBIN) is transforming cross-border trade by enabling businesses to be recognised, verified, and approved across all member states. UBIN provides a single, trusted business identity that reduces administrative barriers, streamlines approvals, and supports growth for companies of all sizes, particularly micro, small, and medium enterprises. Entrepreneurs such as Nadhir Ashafiq, Co-Founder of The Lorry, emphasise that harmonised procedures and easier business setup across ASEAN are key to unlocking the region’s potential. By creating a transparent and interoperable system, UBIN strengthens market connectivity and lays the foundation for a more inclusive and resilient digital trade ecosystem.
