First time visitors will need to create a user account – and it must be by a company director or owner!

Once you’ve created your account, applying for the license is a simple four-step process:

  1. Select the CIDB grade you’re applying for
  2. Upload necessary documents
  3. Pay RM50 application fee
  4. Pay RM150 annual fee once approved

If all documents are in order, CIDB applications typically take seven working days to process.

The license may later be renewed for up to three years, depending on CCD points accumulated.

And that’s all!

Good luck with your application and if you need help, we’re just a click away.
