What is a building permit?

 

The building permit is a written urban planning authorization. The building permit gives authorization to a citizen to carry out certain work at home. The building permit is an administrative act to be carried out before construction or renovation. This file is part of the other planning authorizations to check whether the project complies with planning rules. It is issued by the town hall of the municipality in which your property is located. This is a complex administrative file made up of several supporting documents.

 

A building permit is necessary in several situations depending on the number of square meters of the floor area and whether or not your work modifies the exterior appearance of the home:

 

  • new constructions even without a foundation of more than 20 m 2 of floor area

  • modifications to existing buildings

  • expansion or attic conversion work

  • Exterior facilities: garage, swimming pool, garden shed

 

If you decide to carry out work without a building permit, this is an infringement of the Town Planning Code and you may be issued a fine up to 10 years after the end of your work. The sanctions can be significant:

 

  • stoppage of work

  • destruction of the building

  • compliance

 

If you have made this oversight, it is possible to rectify the situation by applying for a building permit after the work is completed.
