Vorbescheid beantragen

Would you like to know whether your project is permitted and have not yet submitted a building application? Then you can submit a preliminary building application.

If you have individual legal questions about the permissibility of your building project and have not yet submitted a building application, you can submit a preliminary building inquiry.

This is useful, for example, if it is unclear whether you are allowed to realize your building project on the planned plot.

In the preliminary building application, you formulate your question so clearly that a clear answer is possible.

You will then receive a preliminary building permit for your question.
