COIDA Registration for Construction Companies
Construction is classified as a high-risk industry under COIDA. Builders and contractors pay higher tariffs but must also meet strict safety standards.
High-Risk Tariff Class
Construction tariffs typically range from 2.5% to 8.5% of total earnings. Accurate classification is essential to avoid underpayment penalties.
CIDB Integration
Many construction tenders require both COIDA registration and CIDB grading. Your Letter of Good Standing must be current to qualify for government projects.
Safety File Requirements
Construction employers must maintain a comprehensive safety file documenting risk assessments, incident reports, and training records alongside COIDA compliance.
