Compliance for Your Sector

What the law requires
for mechanics & auto services.

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

01
CAC Business Name Registration
Formal recognition as a registered business — the first requirement for any contract, bank account, or tender application.
02
TIN Registration
FIRS Tax Identification Number. Required for all formal transactions, invoicing, and government engagement.
03
NSITF Certificate
Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund certification. Required for contractor eligibility and government jobs.
04
PAYE Registration
State tax registration as an employer — required as soon as you have paid staff on your books.

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.

🚛
Fleet Service Contracts
Logistics companies, transport cooperatives, and government fleets require verified, compliant workshops. CAC registration and NSITF certification are the baseline entry requirements.
🏛️
Government Vehicle Maintenance
Federal and state government vehicle maintenance tenders require CAC, TIN, and Tax Clearance Certificate. JUSTRA gets you there.
🏦
Cooperative Banking Access
Through JUSTRA's cooperative banking partnerships, mechanic associations gain access to group lending, savings facilities, and equipment finance unavailable to individual informal operators.
🏅
JUSTRA Certified Workshop Status
A JUSTRA certification badge signals verified compliance and professional standards to insurance companies, fleet managers, and corporate clients.
Tax Act 2025

Mechanics & Auto Services 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.
