Builder's checklist

The builders' checklist contains everything needed to obtain a formally issued building permit. The checklist is sent to the applicant after the case is approved at a permit review meeting. Note that meeting approval does not grant permission for construction. You need an issued building permit for that.

Registration of responsible parties

The registration of responsible parties is part of the process of obtaining a building permit. This includes registering the construction manager, the master tradesman, and the design manager's report. Forms are filled out on My Pages. When all parties have been registered, an email is sent to everyone requesting an electronic signature with electronic ID.

Registration is not received by the Building Commissioner until all have signed.

Important to remember

  • Make sure email and ID numbers are correct.
  • Do not use a dash "-" in ID numbers.
  • Enter USK or BN number (not BL number).

Construction manager

The owner or applicant needs to select a construction manager responsible for the project and register that person electronically. If the construction manager stops overseeing the development before the final inspection, an application for a new construction manager must be submitted.

Master tradesmen

The construction manager registers master tradesmen responsible for various work phases. If a master tradesman stops working before the project is completed, an application for a new master tradesman must be submitted.

Design manager's report

The design manager registers designers in the design manager's report. You do not always have to submit this, so the checklist will specifically request the checklist registration if needed.

Look up qualifications

Information is automatically retrieved from the Housing and Construction Authority (HMS) rights portal. Therefore, you can only register individuals with the appropriate construction manager and master tradesman qualifications. If you are unsure whether an individual has specific qualifications, you can look up licenses and certifications on the HMS website.

Fees

You must pay appropriate fees according to the schedule. of fees.

Change of ownership declarations

If you are increasing or decreasing the number of properties, or changing their size, you must submit a declaration of property division. In some cases, the Building Commissioner must confirm the declaration of property division before a building permit can be issued.
