G7 is CIDB’s top grade, with G7 contractors allowed to handle construction projects with no upper limit.
By contrast, G6 contractors are ‘only’ allowed contracts worth up to RM10 million.
This promises tremendous returns to those who satisfy G7’s strict demands, and our guide has everything you need to know about CIDB’s G7 grade, including:
- minimum requirements
- required documents
- registration steps and fees, and
- license renewal
Let’s begin.

Registration steps and fees
CIDB license applications should be made via CIDB’s CIMS portal.
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:
- Select the CIDB grade you’re applying for
- Upload necessary documents
- Pay RM50 application fee
- Pay RM1,400 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.
