Free client intake form for freelancers in Malaysia
A freelancer in Malaysia needs a client intake form that asks the right questions, shows prices in MYR, uses +60 phone numbers and fits the PDPA 2010. CalendarForm gives you that form free for 250 submissions a month, joined to a booking page that shows times in Asia/Kuala Lumpur (UTC+8 all year, no daylight saving).

What to put on a client intake form in Malaysia
- Full name
- Company and website
- What do you need done?
- Deadline
- Budget range
- Phone, in the local format (for example +60 12-345 6789)
- Preferred language (Malay, English, Chinese and Tamil)
- Consent: "I agree to the freelancer using these details for my booking, as set out in the privacy notice (the PDPA 2010)"
Show the price as text on the booking page, for example "RM 50 for a project kick-off call, pay by DuitNow QR and FPX online banking". CalendarForm does not take payment itself, so customers pay you the way they already do in Malaysia.
What freelancers usually let customers book
- Intro call: a 1-to-1 appointment, 15 min
- Project kickoff: a 1-to-1 appointment, 45 min
For freelancers in Malaysia, CalendarForm gives a freelancer one page with a booking link for calls and a project brief form, so new clients book a time and tell you what they need in one step. Most freelancers stay inside the free tier.
Put the booking link in your email signature.
Use a project brief form before every kickoff.
Set minimum notice so you are never booked same-day by surprise.

Privacy: what the PDPA 2010 means for this form
Nationally, the PDPA 2010 is Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act: give a short notice of why you collect data, in Malay and English where you can.
CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.
Booking times in Malaysia
Malaysia has no daylight saving, so your timetable never shifts against UTC: UTC+8 every day of the year.
Customers booking from abroad still see the time in Asia/Kuala Lumpur, with the zone printed next to it, and their confirmation email repeats it.
Set it up in four steps
- Sign up free, pick the closest business type, and rename the starter form to "Client intake form".
- Set the time zone to Asia/Kuala_Lumpur and add your opening hours.
- Edit the questions above, add the the PDPA 2010 consent line, and attach the form to your booking page.
- Share your link. Each booking sends an email confirmation with a cancel link, and a reminder 24 hours before.
Questions
- Is it really free?
- Yes, up to 250 form submissions and 100 bookings a month. Most solo freelancers never pass that.
- Can I use my own domain?
- Not yet. Your page lives at calendarform.bobwork.ai/your-name.
- Is a free client intake form enough for freelancers in Malaysia?
- For most small freelancers, yes. You get 250 form submissions and 100 bookings free every month; after that, $5 buys 2,000 more submissions or 500 bookings, and packs never expire. Prices on your page can be in MYR.
- Does the form follow the PDPA 2010?
- The form collects only the questions you add and shows your consent line. Following the PDPA 2010 is still your job: ask only what you need, say why, and link your privacy notice.
- Can I write the form in Malay?
- Yes. Questions, options and the thank-you message are free text, so you can write them in Malay and English.
