🏗️ Builders & Contractors

Nigerian builders.
Registered, compliant, contract-ready.

Construction in Nigeria runs on paperwork. CAC, TIN, TCC, NSITF, and COREN certification are the price of entry for government and corporate contracts. JUSTRA handles the compliance so you can focus on the build.

Compliance for Your Sector

What the law requires
for builders & contractors.

These are the specific compliance requirements that apply to your business. JUSTRA handles all of them — sequenced correctly and filed on time.

01
CAC Limited Liability Company
Most government and corporate construction tenders require LLC status, not just a business name. JUSTRA handles the full incorporation.
02
TIN and Tax Clearance Certificate
FIRS TIN and an annual TCC are mandatory for all government procurement participation — including the Federal Tenders Board and state contractors lists.
03
NSITF Certificate
Construction sites require NSITF coverage for all workers. Certificate required before site mobilisation on formal contracts.
04
Annual FIRS Returns
Company income tax returns must be filed annually — even where tax payable is zero under the ₦100M exemption threshold.

What Formalisation Unlocks

The doors that open
when you register.

Registration is not a cost. It is an investment that opens contracts, credit, and markets your competitors cannot reach.

🏛️
Government Contract Prequalification
Federal and state procurement portals require CAC, TIN, TCC, NSITF, and pension compliance before a contractor can be shortlisted. JUSTRA delivers full prequalification readiness.
🏢
Corporate Supplier Registration
Banks, telecoms, oil majors, and large retailers require formal supplier registration. A JUSTRA-compliant contractor profile meets every standard document requirement.
💰
Project Finance Access
Formal construction firms with clean compliance records access CBN-backed SME construction finance, bank project loans, and development finance institution funding.
📋
BoQ and Tender Readiness
JUSTRA keeps your compliance calendar current so your company is always tender-ready — no expired certificates blocking a live opportunity.
Tax Act 2025

Builders & Contractors businesses under ₦100M pay 0% Company Income Tax from January 2026.

The Nigerian Tax Act 2025 exempts small and medium enterprises from company income tax. Formalising your business now is a tax-saving decision — not just a compliance one.
