  • Photos of the unapproved works

Key Technical Rules

  • Survey what is built: an as-built survey shows exactly what differs from the approved drawings.
  • Structural assessment: unpermitted works are checked for safety before anything is submitted.
  • Approve or remove: works that cannot be approved must be modified, removed or reinstated.
  • Retrospective NOC and permit: approvable works go through the developer and the authority.
  • Needed before sale: clearance is usually required before sale, handover or a VSR.
