Here are the 8 Categories that needs COA from CIDB prior to Import
The Certificate of Approval (COA) is necessary in construction because it ensures that imported construction products meet the quality standards required by Malaysian regulations. Here’s why it is important:
- Regulatory Compliance: The Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) is responsible for enforcing quality control in the construction industry, as outlined in Act 520 (Amendment 2011). The COA ensures that products, particularly imported ones, meet these legally mandated standards.
- Malaysia Standard (MS) Compliance: The COA confirms that construction materials comply with Malaysia Standard (MS), which guarantees that they are suitable for use in the local environment and meet safety, performance, and durability criteria.
- Customs Regulation: The Customs (Prohibitions on Import) Order 1998 (Amendment 2012) requires that specific construction materials, when imported, must have a COA to be allowed into the country. This reduces the risk of substandard or unsafe materials entering the Malaysian market.
- Quality Assurance: The COA acts as a quality assurance mechanism for builders, contractors, and consumers, ensuring that all materials used in construction projects are of verified quality, whether they are locally sourced or imported.
In short, the COA is needed to ensure the imported construction products meet local standards and regulations, protecting both the industry and end users from substandard or unsafe materials.
