Are you planning to build new premises or extend existing ones? If so, you will probably need a building permit.
There are three types of construction work:
- Construction work for which you must obtain a building permit
Construction work which requires a building permit. - Construction work which you must notify to the local council
Small building works which you have to notify to the council and obtain permission to build - Free construction work
Construction work for which you do not need a building permit or council permission.
Do you have building plans for which you also need an environmental permit? If so, apply for the environmental permit first. You cannot obtain a building permit until you have a decision on your environmental permit application. In addition, environmental requirements may affect your building plans.
Ask the Buildings and Housing department of your local council or the Chamber of Commerce for more information.
