How do I apply for a Lawful Development Certificate?

A Lawful Development Certificate offers peace of mind that an existing or proposed use of a building is lawful or that the proposal doesn’t require planning permission.

You can read more about Lawful Development Certificates in our permission section1.

You can apply for a Lawful Development Certificate using the Planning Portal’s application service2.
