🇬🇧 English

This regulation moves many building permit project files into a digital format. For new buildings in areas with an implementation zoning plan, architecture, structural, electrical, mechanical, drawings, calculations, reports, and related permit documents must be prepared digitally and submitted in the required formats. The rule mainly affects architects, engineers, developers, contractors, and local authorities that handle building permits. Small detached buildings of up to two floors and 200 square meters, excluding basements, and certain non-integrated agricultural and livestock structures are outside the scope. Project teams will need to align their files with the regulation’s digital standards, including formats such as PDF/A and BIM-related data structures where required.
