As a rule, you need a building permit for the construction, modification (e.g. conversion), change of use (e.g. conversion of a shop into an apartment) and the demolition of buildings and other structures. A complete building application is an essential prerequisite for a smooth and short process. The simplified procedure is the fastest and most cost-effective procedure for your building permit (mainly for residential construction).

Important notes

Prerequisites

The prerequisites for issuing a building permit must be checked in each individual case.

Documents required

Application and building plans.
The specific documents depend on the individual case. Depending on the approval process and project, different documents are required.

Please note

Remember that you may still need approvals from other authorities in the simplified procedure. You must check on your own responsibility whether all legal areas of the building regulations and ancillary building laws are being observed.

If you would like to have everything from one source, you should rather choose the concentrated procedure according to § 62 HBauO. We offer you this service there.

A building application may be rejected if the documents are not complete.

There is no longer any telephone consultation. Advice outside of ongoing approval procedures is subject to a fee

Deadlines

If the building application shows significant deficiencies, the district office will be asked to rectify the deficiencies within a reasonable period of time. The deadline depends on the extent of the defects.

Procedure & Fees

Procedure

The building application must be submitted in writing with all the documents (building templates) required for the assessment of the building project. Depending on the approval process and project, different documents are required.
Please note that a building application may be rejected if the documents are not complete.
If there are any doubts as to whether the construction project can be approved in principle, this can be clarified at an early stage with a preliminary building inquiry by means of a preliminary decision.

Processing time

The processing time depends on the scope of the project applied for and can take 1 to 3 months after the required documents have been submitted in full.

Fees

The fees for issuing a building permit are EUR 62.80 minimum fee in the simplified procedure; EUR 125.60 minimum fee in the concentrated procedure
