Applying for a planning permit
Are you planning to build or demolish something in your garden or next to your home? For example, do you intend to build a garage or cut down a tree? If so, you will often need a planning permit (omgevingsvergunning). You can apply for this permit via Omgevingsloket online. In some cases you only need to notify the authorities, and no permit is required.
You need a planning permit for various activities in your garden or in and around your house, such as:
- construction;
- demolition;
- building a driveway;
- modifying, renovating or restoring a listed building;
- cutting down trees.
Go to Omgevingsloket online (online environment portal) to check whether you require a planning permit (in Dutch) or if just a notification is sufficient.
You can apply for a planning permit via Omgevingsloket online (in Dutch).
If you prefer to send in a written application, you can download a planning permit form (in Dutch) via Omgevingsloket online. You can send the form by post to your municipality.
This is how it works in your (future) place of residence
