Which Online Building Permits in Ohio Can Be Obtained?
Ohio offers commercial and residential building permits which can be applied for and received through the online permit portal, including:
- Building-Structural ePermits for Residential
- Renovation Permits ePermits
- Structural Change ePermits
- Plumbing ePermits

Submitting an Online Building Permit Application in Ohio
Any homeowner, licensed contractor or permit expediting service in Ohio can apply for an ePermit by providing the information required in a traditional application.
However, construction drawings are necessary on most construction projects and especially for commercial projects, which must be submitted in PDF format in order for them to be reviewed.
If the information and documentation provided does not meet the technical guidelines, the application will be sent back, resulting in delays for the permitting process.
Scheduling Online Building Inspections in Ohio

The entire scheduling process can be done according to your specific needs on the project, as the portal includes a wide range of property inspections in Ohio that are required for an electronic building permit approval.
What is the Timeframe for Review of Electronic Building Plans in Ohio?
Once the electronic plans have been submitted for review through the portal, you will be notified of the review between 10 to 25 days. However, if the electronic plans that you submit do not meet the guidelines, then it will result in delays of the review.
