A complete building application is essential for the procedure to run smoothly.

In the case of a pure change of use without a structural change, a design author can be dispensed with entirely. The author of the design, who is authorized to submit building plans, is usually an architect or a civil engineer. If there are any doubts as to whether the building project can be approved in principle, you can have these clarified at an early stage with a preliminary building permit. However, this only answers individual questions and does not replace the required building permit.

Your building application may be rejected if the documents are not complete after several subsequent requests.
