VERMONT BUILDING PERMITS 

Online Building Permits in Vermont

As the Development Services public counter of Vermont is closed for the time being, the State will be allowing plans to be submitted via email for electronic review. The ePlan Portal enables you to submit an online application request for Building and Engineering Projects. Plans and documents will be submitted, reviewed and approved electronically.

Who Needs an Electronic Building Permit in Vermont?

Before you begin any construction of a building or structure, you are required to submit an application for an Online Building Permit in Vermont . Whether the project is residential or commercial, it is crucial to receive the necessary approval before the construction begins, or you may face a heavy fine and delays in the work.

The Electronic Building Application Review Process in Vermont

Once you have completed the online submission process, the Development Services team will begin their review process. The initial request takes roughly 1 to 3 business days to be pre-screened, at which time the online submission will be checked to see that:

• The online building application is properly completed
• All building plans and drawings are in the acceptable format
• Correct signatures from architects or engineers are included

An incomplete submission will delay the pre-screening of your submittal and increase the review time for your project, causing delays in receiving your electronic building permit in Vermont.

Who Can Submit an Electronic Building Permit Application in Vermont?

Any homeowner, architect or a licensed contractor can apply to the State of Vermont for an ePermit by providing enough information to describe the project fully and clearly.

Construction drawings are necessary on most construction projects and especially for commercial projects, these must be prepared by an architect. For a home improvement project, the homeowner may prepare the drawings, provided that the drawings are accurate, legible and complete.
