Unterlagen für die Genehmigungsfreistellung einreichen

You do not need planning permission for certain building projects. For these you need an exemption from approval.

Before you can build a project that does not require a permit, you need a permit exemption.

For example, a detached house is exempt from approval if it is to be built in an area with a development plan

• Submission of the required documents for exemption from approval (via online service or publicly published forms)
• Extract from the official real estate register
• site plan
• Construction drawings
• Building description
• Calculation of the permitted, existing and planned extent of building use for construction projects within the scope of a development plan that contains provisions on this matter

• Complete submission of the required documents for approval exemption
• Building project complies with public law regulations

You do not need a permit for your building project if

• it is located in a development area whose development plan has been approved,
• it does not contradict the provisions of the development plan,
• the development is secured and
• the municipality does not request a simplified building permit procedure within the statutory period or apply for a provisional prohibition.

If you wish to deviate from the development plan, you must apply to the responsible building supervisory authority before the approval exemption is granted.

Fees in accordance with the municipal statutes
