From a brand-new Sdn Bhd to CIDB G7 — every step done by the book

MK HUAKANG CLEAN TECHNOLOGY SDN. BHD. is the Malaysian arm of the group behind Shenzhen-listed Huakang Clean (301235). ONEKEY BIZ took it the whole distance — incorporate the Sdn Bhd, open the OCBC account, inject RM750,000 of real paid-up capital, register the EPF (KWSP) and SOCSO (PERKESO) employer accounts, then secure CIDB Grade G7 across B04, CE21 and M15. Every step was done the fully compliant way, in the order that makes each one possible.

The client

A listed clean-technology group lands in Malaysia

MK HUAKANG CLEAN TECHNOLOGY SDN. BHD. (Company No. 202601018867 / 1680964-T) is the Malaysian subsidiary in the group behind Huakang Clean (华康洁净) — a Shenzhen-listed company (SZSE: 301235) specialising in cleanroom and clean-technology engineering. The Malaysian entity is held through the group's Singapore company, giving it a clean, listed-grade corporate structure.

To take on major cleanroom and construction projects in Malaysia, the entity needed the top contractor grade, CIDB G7 — which, for a foreign-owned company, means RM750,000 of genuine paid-up capital plus a full set of supporting registrations. A listed group can't afford anything less than a spotless, compliant setup.

So the brief to ONEKEY BIZ was simple to say and demanding to deliver: take us from a brand-new company all the way to CIDB G7 — and do every step properly.

The compliant journey

Five steps to G7 — and why the order matters

CIDB G7 isn't a single form — it's the finish line of a sequence. Get the order wrong and you stall; get it right and each step unlocks the next. Here's exactly how we did it, the compliant way.

Incorporate the Sdn Bhd

We registered MK HUAKANG CLEAN TECHNOLOGY SDN. BHD. with SSM as a foreign-owned company — the legal entity that everything else hangs on.

SSM

Open the OCBC corporate account

Straight after incorporation we opened the company's OCBC account. This is the step people underestimate — you cannot pay real capital into a company that has no bank account.

Why first: capital has to land somewhere real

OCBC

Inject & increase paid-up capital to RM750,000

With the account live, the shareholder's funds were paid into the company and the paid-up capital was raised to RM750,000 — lodged with SSM under a Section 76 allotment. Real money, genuinely paid up — not a paper figure. That's what makes a G7 stand up to scrutiny.

G7 needs RM750,000 — and it must be real

SSM · S76

Register EPF (KWSP) & SOCSO (PERKESO) employer accounts

In parallel, we registered the company's EPF and SOCSO employer accounts. Here's the bit most people forget: these are themselves part of the CIDB G7 supporting documents. Leave them to the end and the whole application drags.

The overlooked G7 document — done early

KWSP · PERKESO

CIDB Grade G7 approved ✅

With capital, bank and statutory registrations all genuinely in place, the CIDB G7 application went through — approved across B04 (Building), CE21 (Civil Engineering) and M15 (Mechanical & Electrical). Top grade, no project limit, fully compliant.

Why do it the compliant way

A G7 is only as good as the capital behind it

💰

Real capital, not a paper figure

RM750,000 of paid-up capital was genuinely paid into the company's bank account. A grade built on real money is one that survives due diligence from clients, principals and auditors.

🔗

The right order saves weeks

Incorporate → bank → capital → EPF/SOCSO → CIDB. Each step produces exactly what the next one needs, so nothing waits on a missing document.

📁

Nothing overlooked

The EPF and SOCSO employer accounts — a CIDB requirement people routinely forget — were registered early, so they never became the thing holding G7 up.

On the CIDB scale

Straight to the top of the CIDB ladder

⭐G7Registered here

CIDB grades run from G1 up to G7. G7 is the highest — no project value limit — and requires RM750,000 in paid-up capital. MK HUAKANG registered straight at the top, across all three of B04, CE21 and M15.

FAQ

CIDB G7 & the compliant setup — frequently asked questions

How much paid-up capital does a foreign-owned company need for CIDB Grade G7?

CIDB Grade G7 — the highest grade, with no project value limit — requires RM750,000 in paid-up capital. For a foreign-owned company this must be real, fully paid-up capital, not a paper figure. MK HUAKANG's RM750,000 was genuinely subscribed and paid up by its shareholder.

Why must the bank account be opened before increasing the paid-up capital?

Because paid-up capital has to actually be paid into the company. Only once the corporate bank account (OCBC, for MK HUAKANG) is open can the shareholder's funds be injected into the company, and the capital increase then lodged with SSM. Doing it in this order keeps the whole thing genuinely compliant, rather than a capital figure with no money behind it.

Do EPF (KWSP) and SOCSO (PERKESO) employer accounts matter for a CIDB G7 application?

Yes — and this is the step many people forget. Registering the EPF (KWSP) and SOCSO (PERKESO) employer accounts is part of the supporting documentation for a CIDB registration. Leaving it to the last minute is a common cause of delay, so ONEKEY BIZ registers them in parallel, right after the capital is in place.

What categories did MK HUAKANG's CIDB G7 cover?

MK HUAKANG's CIDB Grade G7 was approved across three categories: B (Building, code B04), CE (Civil Engineering, code CE21) and ME (Mechanical & Electrical, code M15) — a broad, full-stack registration suited to cleanroom and clean-technology engineering work.

Can a Malaysian subsidiary of a foreign (or listed) parent get CIDB G7?

Yes. MK HUAKANG CLEAN TECHNOLOGY SDN. BHD. is the Malaysian subsidiary in the group behind Shenzhen-listed Huakang Clean (301235). A foreign-owned Sdn Bhd can obtain CIDB G7 as long as the paid-up capital, personnel and supporting registrations are properly in place — which is exactly what ONEKEY BIZ set up.

Can ONEKEY BIZ handle the whole journey from incorporation to CIDB G7?

Yes. ONEKEY BIZ runs the full stack end to end — Sdn Bhd incorporation, OCBC corporate account, the paid-up capital increase to RM750,000, EPF and SOCSO employer registration, and the CIDB G7 application — sequenced so each step unlocks the next and the whole thing stays compliant.
