Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) vice-president Datuk Hamidin Mohd Amin said it was informed that all teams had settled arrears or were paying by installment.
"I am happy that the teams have given positive response to FAM's moves to address this problem," he told reporters after chairing FAM local competitions committee meeting here Friday.
The Malaysian Football League had grappled with non-payment of EPF subscription since its inception in 1994 with arrears reaching a high of RM5.4mil.
Hamidin said teams that paid by installment include Perlis which agreed to pay EPF RM20,000 monthly to settle arrears amounting RM500,000.
FAM threatened to drop teams that failed to settle payment to EPF, Inland Revenue Board (IRB) and Social Security Organisation (Socso) by Oct 30.
Football players plying the Malaysian League next season will also have insurance coverage.
