Registration of the building/demolition permit

The issuer of the building/demolition permit is obliged to establish a register of issued building/demolition permits, in which they are recorded in the order of issuance, the permit number corresponding to the registration number of the application.

a) the validity period of the building/demolition permit;

b) the duration of work execution.

The validity of the building/demolition permit consists of:

a) the period of up to 24 months from the date of issuance, during which the applicant has the right to start the authorized works;

b) in case of fulfilling the condition specified in letter a), from the announced start date of the works, the validity of the permit extends for the entire duration of the execution of the works provided for in the permit.

The execution period of the works, which represents the maximum physical time necessary for the actual realization of authorized construction works, is determined by the issuer of the building/demolition permit, based on the data entered in the application - respectively in its annex - according to the provisions of the technical documentation - D.T. for authorizing the execution of building works - D.T.A.C. or demolition - D.T.A.D., as applicable. Depending on public interest and the degree of complexity of the works, the issuer of the building/demolition permit may reduce the duration of works execution compared to that requested in the documentation, with consultation of the investor/beneficiary, project manager, designer, or consultant, as appropriate.

In case of change of investor during the execution and before the completion of the works, the validity of the building/demolition permit is maintained, provided that the provisions thereof are still observed, as well as registration in the Land Registry of the changes regarding real property rights. In this case, the permit together with the other documents - permits, agreements, documentation, etc. -, which formed the basis for its issuance, belong by right to the new investor (owner).

If during the execution of the works and only during the validity period of the building permit, changes to the works authorized occur which require their modification, the holder is obliged to request a new building permit, according to the provisions of this law.

For obtaining a new building permit, the applicant will submit new technical documentation - D.T. prepared under the modifications that occurred, following which the competent local public administration authority will decide, as appropriate:

a) issuance of the new building permit, if the works corresponding to the modifications fit within the limits of the administrative act of the competent authority for environmental protection, as well as the permits and agreements obtained for the initial building permit;

b) resumption of the authorization procedure under this law, if the works corresponding to the modifications exceed the limits of the administrative act of the competent authority for environmental protection, as well as those of the permits and agreements obtained for the initial building permit.

Extension of the validity of the building/demolition permit

If the construction works have not been started or executed in full within the deadlines established by the building/demolition permit, the investor may request the issuing authority to extend the validity of the permit.

The extension of the validity of the building/demolition permit must be requested at least 45 working days before the expiry of the validity term and may be granted, according to the law, only once for up to 24 months.

The decision regarding the granting of the extension of the validity of the building/demolition permit is the responsibility of the issuer, based on the examination of the request in relation to:

a) public interest;

b) the complexity of the authorized works;

c) progress of the works or reasons that led to failure to meet the deadlines set in the permit.

The extension of the validity of the building/demolition permit shall be entered in the original of the initially issued permit, without requiring the presentation of other documentation. In this case, the issuer is obliged to communicate its decision to the applicant within a maximum of 15 days from the submission of the application.

a) failure to start the works within the validity period set by the building/demolition permit or failure to finish them within the execution duration set by the permit, if extension of the validity was not requested;

b) failure to finish the works within the period granted as an extension of the permit validity;

c) modification of the conditions, data, or content of the documentation which formed the basis for the issuance of the permit.

In the above cases, issuance of a new building/demolition permit is necessary.

In case of failure to complete the works within the period granted by the extension of the building/demolition permit validity, continuing the unfinished works will only be possible after issuing, under the law, a new building/demolition permit corresponding to the physical stage of the works completed at the date of the application, for the remaining construction works, according to the project and the permits that formed the basis of the initial permit. In this situation, the authorization fees will be calculated according to the value of the works remaining to be executed.

If the validity period of the permit has expired – including that granted by the initial extension –, for the issuance of a new building permit for completing the remaining works, the validity of the urban planning certificate, as well as of the permits and agreements issued for the initial permit is kept, provided the construction is carried out in accordance with the initial permit provisions.

In case of interruption of works execution for a long period (exceeding the validity period of the building/demolition permit), without taking conservation measures, according to current legal regulations regarding quality in construction, continuing the remaining works can only be done after issuance of a new building/demolition permit, which will be based on technical documentation drawn up according to the conclusions of the technical expertise report of the works executed.

Any modification of the technical documentation - D.T. for authorizing the execution of construction works before the start or during the course of the works is subject to resumption of the procedure of

authorization if the modifications do not fit within the limits of the permits, agreements, and the administrative act of the competent authority for environmental protection. Verification of the framing of modifications within the limits of the permits and agreements is carried out by specialized structures of the competent public administration authorities, as well as by certified project checkers according to the law, with the participation of representatives of the approving institutions, while the verification of the modifications within the limits of the administrative act of the competent authority for environmental protection is performed by it according to the provisions of legislation on environmental impact assessment of certain public and private projects.
